    Hello everybody! I am looking for information about how to protect the hosts file in windows vista... any ideas?

    I am trying to re-enforce my security with layers...

    so far I have

    antivirus antivir
    superantispyware
    malwarebytes
    threatfire
    spywareblaster
    winpatrol
    comodo firewall

    is these too much? am I over reacting?


    thanks for any piece of advice
