2 more that must have's, ESET Nod32 and MSE.

These two anti malware/viri proggies have saved my comp on more than one occasion.

Nod catches the newest keygen,adware,malware proggies it's unreal.

If your going to suggest people use TOR make sure they know about the potential for a man in the middle attack. This has become a very large issue and is in the NetSec (Network Security) field a very serious issue that has in the last 5 months become more evident (some info that was obtained by wikileaks was found by using these kind of attacks)

If you want to surf securely use portable applications. Get tor browser and if you want to really hide what you are talking about look up gpg4win.

I don't know much about internet security, just some common (sense) things so the "man in the middle attack" stuff was a bit hard for me to read up to.

Below is an easy to understand article for more average people like I am.

It explains in fairly plain language what mitm attacks are about:

http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/03/packet-forensics/


At a recent wiretapping convention, however, security researcher Chris Soghoian discovered that a small company was marketing internet spying boxes to the feds. The boxes were designed to intercept those communications — without breaking the encryption — by using forged security certificates, instead of the real ones that websites use to verify secure connections. To use the appliance, the government would need to acquire a forged certificate from any one of more than 100 trusted Certificate Authorities.
The attack is a classic man-in-the-middle attack, where Alice thinks she is talking directly to Bob, but instead Mallory found a way to get in the middle and pass the messages back and forth without Alice or Bob knowing she was there.

Thanks everyone for this! Bump bump

It would be nice if all this info was discussed/explained for us non-computer geeks out here. I'd live to know what exact security measures other icmaggers are using. I'm thinking of using a proxy/VPN but have no clue where to start.

Yes BUT that would not really help anyone since the situation is a bit more complex than just what is being discussed here.

In other words in order to know & understand how what works & how to set things one has to understand the process of doing so.

All that can be read up on Google etc, see my link in my post above for example.

Just like when one starts to grow...he/she can and does ask basic questions on here...but the actual growing process is more complex and is learned by experience and less on a forum.
