You don't have to use the beta version of Chrome 64-bits, there's a stable build out. Also I would add more extensions.

You should never use two Antiviruses at the same time. Uninstall Webroot Internet Security. It's worth nothing compared to an ESET product.
For your Google Chrome, no need to use the beta build since there's a stable 64-bits build. Also, I don't know why Kali Linux count as a protection utility ?

Webroot is built to work with other anti viruses, at least that is what they advertise. I also like webroot cause it doesnt rely on definitions but instead analyzes how the program may behave. I use kali for its forensics tools and teaching myself possible ways to infect and attack computers.

PS. Never knew there was a stable build. THX :D

This is what you call "behavorial analysis/engine". Every Antiviruses have one (every good ones at least). Well Kali Linux doesn't count as a protection utility then.

I'll take your advice about webroot since eset usually takes care of everything. Thx for your feedback. Much appreciated

I tried the stable one and it does not have that "multi-person-mode" or whatever to call it. Where I can swap mails easily to also swap browsing history.

Why would you suggest me to add more extensions? Like what? I've never been infected in my life so I feel I am pretty safe. Well, I don't download programs usually - When I do i run them in sandboxie or virtuale.

I forgot about that multi user mode, I wonder when they'll release it in a stable version. And mostly to block infections at the source since a browser is an open door for malware and make your whole browsing experience more safe and secure.

If you use a 64-bits version of Windows, you can use the 64-bits version of Google Chrome, it's better suited for your system.

Yes and yes, that's why I love µBlock, for it's simplicity and the fact it's much more optimized than AdBlock Plus.

I guess I could try to put Adblock and AdBlock Plus on hold for a moment to give uBlock a shot.
