FlyVPN client on Windows or Mac....to protect my online security and hide my IP when I surf on the Internet. Now, Promo christmas is available. You can have a look at its official website.
Something I have started installing and doing overall on all my OS's is installing a VPN Open Frame Work. I dont install the PIA App crap but instead use the OpenVPN and Network Manager Software suite built in too nix.
I also disable all network connections and up on booting the system \ s I will activate my Ethernet connection if and when necessary if I want to go on line. Just another security feature as in disabling the network interface.

A lot of things from my previous list still exist but I've limited a lot of installs by adding a 512GB SSD and leave certain things installed. Steam is one good example, as is FRAPS (which I don't normally use). UltraISO, Handbrake, and the like I move over to my server to free up work time on my main rig and because I can remote into it.
