It seems silly to ask but… right now mine are set to custom in firewall and D+. If I can’t trust Eset and Comodo who can I trust? Or better still, who else can I trust?

Sure, Trusted Application is good for them. They can’t be hijacked to do harm to your system. The only other detail is the ekrn.exe proxy problem (NOD32) and the BOC Program Excluder. Ekrn.exe filters outgoing connection requests as if it were a proxy connection, so that all logs of the connection requests appear as if ekrn.exe were the source of the connection request. This defeats the purpose of connection logging, so you have to decide if it is better to have the connection logging reflect the true source of the request or if you want to have active monitoring of the connection content by ekrn.exe. BOC will cause alerts even as a trusted app because it monitors processes in memory and when it tries to monitor CFP processes, it is prevented by Defense+ and an alert or Defense+ event is generated. This can be prevented by putting CFP’s exe’s on BOC’s Program Excluder.

Thanks. After reading several posts on the Wilder’s forum I turned off NOD’s scanning of my browsers after installing CFP.
I’ll add NOD and BOClean to my trusted apps and CFP to BOCLean’s excluder.
Sound OK?
