[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 89360, post: 914317"] Every time I uninstall a third party AV, anti-malware service executable starts running and I start hating my PC. ESET has a bug where sometimes Defender just randomly gets enabled (I saw it on 2 systems) and as soon as it starts running, on a slower one it's just a nightmare to work. If you try to install something (Windows Defender being the only AV), don't remember what It's been, there is a constant variation of 20-40% CPU usage. If you try launching Photoshop for example, you can feel the performance decrease and again, it uses about 40% on average. I've observed it many times on many systems, so there is no way this is not a common behaviour. This test also puts it on the last place. Other 2 apps from the Windows Defender group are Trend Micro (absolute no for me) and Malwarebytes (both ineffective and heavy) [/QUOTE]
