You didn't mention if you're up for paid solutions, but Malwarebytes + Nod32 = Safe :)

If you are really serious, then pay for sandboxie.

Why wouldn't I be serious? And yeah, I already have the free version of Sandboxie.

Paid version is better because it force sandboxes the browser exe's when ever they are open. So you can't accidently open a browser session via a different app and then forget you are unstandbox.

Okay, thanks for that!

Anyways, back on topic.

I always liked SuperAntispyware better. PCtools always felt REALLY heavy and always tended to really slow a machine down.

So like someone said, malwarebytes paid + Av is good and then just do a superantispyware free scan every once and a while.

I am using Malwarebytes at the same time. Though I'm paranoid and that's why I'm installing a bunch of crap haha :)

ALL you need is ONLY MALWAREBYTES pro... I download warez, torrents, porn, surf porn, and malwarebytes 100% success. I also clean up others peoples machines from them downloading warez, torrents, porn, surfing porn as well with 100% success ratio. Its all you need... really. Anyone tells you that you need more are probably wearing a tinfoil hat. Before the last 4 years, used malwarebytes free with avira for my machine, the machines i serviced and sold, but after going Pro, dropped Avira and never had to look back.. ever.

edit: I do ocassinally (after 4 years it seems 100% unnecessary) do scans with other suites JUST incase (including superantispy) but have not once had malwarebytes miss anything.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.

      26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

      By WrongHead™ · Posted

      It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
