[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 893908, member: 31436"] I never get infected. Not because I use an antivirus, but because I never encounter malware, despite spending many hours online and often visiting lots of random websites. Because of this, I could ditch my antivirus and use no other security software (not even Windows Defender) and most likely never get infected. While I'm not going to do this, in my case I can say that antivirus software is not absolutely necessary. [/QUOTE]
