[QUOTE="zidong, post: 1097047, member: 115014"] It's very hard, almost impossible to catch virus, even if you are downloading torrents 24/7. There are many reliable torrent trackers. I have been pirating for over 15 years and never catch a virus. How I know? My paypal, steam, epic, gog, ubisoft, rockstar accounts are untouched plus MBAM, EEK, NPE, Sophos Scan and Clean finds nothing. I don't understand how home users manage to infect their computers. OFC big companies, government and healthcare institutions etc are prime targets, but home users...If home user Y is a target I doubt that 3rd party antivirus would help much. edit: Asus router - Enable AI Protection (Trend Micro) - UPnP - disabled, Web Access from WAN - Disabled, Ping from WAN - Disabled, DMZ - Disabled, Port Trigger - Disabled, Port Forwarding - Disabled, WPS - Disabled, Anonymous login to FTP share - Disabled, Guest Login for Samba - Disabled. Changed DNS in router - Quad9. Ublock Origin Lite, Edge Smart Screen - enabled. I read that it is good to enable this option: [B]Gpedit Windows components[/B] > [B]Microsoft Defender Antivirus[/B] > [B]Microsoft Defender Exploit Guard[/B] > [B]Network protection >Enabled >Block.
