[QUOTE="plat, post: 984671, member: 74969"] Well, are you talking about the mainstream market? The ones who don't visit forums like these? For non-Enterprise consumers, I wouldn't be surprised if there was actually an uptick in third party sales. War,, COVID and ransomware making the news a lot would be factors. Word-of-mouth, and what employees take home from their places of business. Oh, my company uses ESET, maybe I should try that. Norton advertises aggressively. I see Malwarebytes advertising also, on Yahoo. In these kinds of calamities, everyone profits. But it can fluctuate a lot. At the end of the day, I actually don't care. It's not the antivirus, it's what I supplement it with and it ain't going away anytime soon. The heck with everyone else. :) [/QUOTE]
