   Obtaining security is NEVER going to be completely automatic, or easy.   
      
   Dragon / Chrome offers quite a lot of online help.  Chrome actually   
   offers "Incognito Mode."   
      
   It will always be a trade off between convenience, user experience,   
   and security.   
      
   Comodo offers a couple of dozen security related programs.  Letting   
   Comodo do everything may or NOT be such a great idea. Up to this   
   point, I have been using a slew of different programs, from different   
   companies.  With multiple computers, it will take a bit of study,   
   establishing multiple-users, and fine tuning to get what I ultimately   
   want.
