[QUOTE="Zero Knowledge, post: 1114447, member: 57429"] Things have come a long way since XP days with no firewall and terrible security. Microsoft receives a lot of hate and they deserve it but implementing WD for free is one of their better decisions. Compare AV from 2001 to now and it's day and night how far protection has improved. AV was never meant to stop targeted attacks using zero day's, but it's getting better over the last 20 years and now campaigns last for hours not days or months (rare these days) before being uncovered. The problem with WD is that once Microsoft has crushed all of the competition will they start charging for basic WD protection or new features. They have a history of abusing their power. [/QUOTE]
