That's basically my setup plan for my new system... but I really doubt there are that many malware capable of getting through all that (from a clicky-clicky / Adobe / Flash infection).

Anything else I should add to better protect myself and prevent all of the above from failing?
I know nothing is 100% hack-proof due to exploits, but I'm trying to learn to see what options I have available (that is all/mostly Free)...
Sorry to not answer directly to your question, but I would just like to add that some of the greatest weaknesses in computer security are user error, such as:

- Comfort (lazy administration)
- Bad or lazy policies (bypassing security measures to get rid of nags or to speed up everday work)
- Weak passwords
- Not spending enough times reading log files (ignoring system errors/messages)

The reason I say this is because no matter what security software you setup or use, it all goes to waste if the user doesn't play along.

As far as i gathered from all your posts, I see that games are also of importance to you. How often do you disable or ignore security measures just to be able to play flawlessly (such as just click on accept on firewall rules to let a game connect)? (One example is this new game, battlefield or the new COD i think that installs some nasty sh!t along with the game to make sure its authentic etc....)

The weakest link is always the user!!!

Just my 2 cents

Cheers
