Can ghostery/adblock do 17 things hosts do for speed, security, & reliability:

1.) Protect vs. malicious sites (beyond malicious ads: See 2-10 next)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop communication to C&C servers
3.) Protect vs. dynamic dns botnets + stop communication to C&C servers
4.) Protect vs. DGA botnets + stop communication to C&C servers
5.) Protect vs. downed DNS servers (adds reliability)
6.) Protect vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns servers
7.) Protect vs. DNS amplification attacks
8.) Protect vs. trackers
9.) Protect vs. spam
10.) Protect vs. phishing
11.) Protect vs. bandwidth caps
12.) Get you past a dnsbl
13.) Keep you off dns request logs
14.) Speed up websurfing (adblocks & hardcoded fav. sites)
15.) Work on ANY webbound app (stand-alone email programs) multiplatform.
16.) Give you easy text data for the above
17.) Do all that & block ads (better than addons) more efficiently in cpu cycles + memory usage

* #11 & #14 yield more bandwidth/speed you pay for (rest = more security & reliability).

BOTH do far less than hosts do & less efficiently - hosts by way of comparison, do MORE w/ less.

Both add complexity/room for breakdown/exploit + from a slower mode of operations (usermode = more messagepassing overheads vs. hosts in kernelmode).

Hosts start w/ the IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN to operate (as 1st resolver queried).

wow, so much misinformation by jgranto · 2015-01-24 13:11 · Score: 1 · on Ask Slashdot: Best Anti-Virus Software In 2015? Free Or Paid?

First off, ignore everyone who recommends Microsoft Security Essentials and/or Windows Defender. Google why - it sucks, totally worthless.

Second, the person who recommended http://www.av-comparatives.org... is wise. Look over their reports over the past few years, as well as http://www.av-test.org/. You will see that Avira, AVG, and Avast are very good products (all free). Some are more bloated that others - I prefer Avast, personally.

NOD32 by Eset used to be known as have the least-impacting AV product - no popups, silent gamer mode, low CPU and disk utilization, etc. It is not free.

I only resort to HijackThis or MalwareBytes when helping someone who already has some form of malware/virus. Safe browsing habits and a decent AV product will protect you just fine.

AVG was it's own company, then got bought by Intel, IIRC.

The person who recommended SandBoxie is also wise. It is a great product to use when you want to browse a site you are unsure about. My biggest complaint about Avast is that is dislikes SandBoxie - to get it to configure settings that I am uncomfortable disabling, so I gave up on using SandBoxie.

I only looked at ClamWin years ago - it did not have an on-access component, it only did disk scans. If this is still true I do not recommend it. You want an on-access scanner that can protect you as soon it it is read or written.

For free, I recommend Avast. For money, Trend Micro and BitDefender always perform well, and I would consider ESET, too.
