[QUOTE="a090, post: 1033998, member: 99949"] I recommend sticking with Kaspersky’s integration, mate. A few reasons why: [LIST=1] [*]You paid for the software for a reason. Use it to its full potential. [*]AVs often don’t work well together, and often have difficulty integrating with 3rd party security software. I’m not saying it isn’t possible. I use F-Secure, Windows Firewall Control, and AdGuard as the main security apparatus for my workstation. All three programs work beautifully together. But that’s not a guarantee in the future, with updates and what-not, so I am taking a gamble here. And I’m OK with that. But if you just want a rock-solid system with little to no compatibility issues, stick to one service and utilize the full suite. The trick is to pick a good one. You already passed that part, so congrats. [*]Kaspersky is one of those especially invasive AVs. It installs its own hypervisor and isn’t compatible with Windows’ default one. It regularly asks to remove other security programs (or did in the recent past), and so on. You picked a great product. Just don’t pair it up with anything in real-time. Big K already does a good job. Stick to solid second opinion scanners onky. If interested (or don’t know what I’m talking about), @ me here and I’ll list my favorites. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
