[QUOTE="Threadripper, post: 958951, member: 78223"] What are you trying to achieve by using an AV? If your machine sends/receives files from Windows or macOS then it makes sense, but otherwise you're wasting your time and resources. Secure your network, use DNS-over-HTTPS, consider a VPN, enable simple firewall to block inbound connections, keep your OS and all of your apps updated (literally just [ICODE]sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y[/ICODE]) as well as the auto-update settings, secure your browser and you're pretty much done.
