I use ESET strictly. Don't really like anything else as far as AV goes

I standard recommendation is to have malewarebytes premium according many white hats that I have spoken with. Since windows keeps making new updates I rather heard that it's scanner is going toe to toe agents avasta. So yeah just get Malewarebytes premium.Then what do you suggest I use for antivirus?

Anything you want, really. I'm partial to Malwarebytes and NOD32, but Windows Defender was deemed the best available. Probably because it interacts with the NT kernel in a way others can't. My advice is to not be cocky on the internet. If someone is smart, they can figure out how to embed malicious payloads in video codec containers and header data of images. Nothing is truly safe on Windows. It's one big exploit hole.Then what do you suggest I use for antivirus?
I do it often. Reluctantly.Imagine calling people normies unironically.
So use a keygen or move to a system that isn't constantly targeted at such a rate that developers lost hope on fixing it all.Ugh, that costs money though
That's the district's fault for not shelling out for an actual IT manager and AV licensing. They saw "FREE", and jumped on board. AVG is the worst on the market. Any security professional will tell you that.(I've seen AVG bork an entire school district's network of teacher computers)
AVG was just an example. I've seen similar issues with others.That's the district's fault for not shelling out for an actual IT manager and AV licensing. They saw "FREE", and jumped on board. AVG is the worst on the market. Any security professional will tell you that.
Symantic also gets 99.6%, so yes. If we exclude April-May, Windows Defender outperforms Norton.McAfee had to be the absolute worst POS antivirus I've ever used, seeing as it corrupted the boot partition on my hard drive, forcing me to reinstall Windows XP. This was
back in what, 2003 or so, I think. Haven't used it since. I'd use Windows Defender, but can it really compare to something like Norton Security Suite?

I bought the premium version after a massive leak of keys (which I actually thought was legal keys). What they did was to explain in the software that you had a leaked/pirated key. They said it was sad that you had one. However they still allowed the software to work for all the months the key was for (12 I think). So I said "fuck it, if you're this nice. I will buy a license!) I still pay for said license. It's nice to have in the background just running. If I would choose another AV (since malwarebytes isn't a AV really) it would be Bitdefender. It's awesome and really light on the system.Malwarebytes. Save my pc a couple of times while other antivirus can't so I wouldn't mind paying for a premium ver of it.
Actually I don't really use any antivirus other than microsoft defender nowadays and haven't had any virus for years. But back then I have to admit I can be very careless but fortunately malwarebytes did save my ass a couple of times.I bought the premium version after a massive leak of keys (which I actually thought was legal keys).

Common sense can only get you so far. A worm is something your common sense can't protect you against.
Why is 15 people voting on an actually virus at the moment? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wds...yclopedia-description?Name=Virus:Win32/Honk.A
AVG isn't really good anymore, according to tests. I just use Windows 10 inbuilt + Malwarebytes. Seem to work fineCus meme kiddos
I been using AVG free for well over a decade, I think it's close to 2 decades in all honesty.
It does its job but its gotten really annoying over the years.
Was thinking of getting a license for it but idk anymore.
