Microsoft Defender
Is the improved performance of Microsoft Defender a myth? Should we necessarily be using a 3rd party AV?

[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 968760, member: 32260"] It is not better but only more convenient than Kaspersky with [USER=36043]@harlan4096[/USER] settings. This setup is a smart default-deny and any unknown file (in KSN) is blocked. So, a child or a happy-clicker can hardly be infected. It also covers scripting (including HTA and JAR scripts) and it is a far stronger setup for children compared to Bitdefender.(y) With Bitdefender, the chances of being infected are similar to most of the popular AVs that do not allow the reputation-based approach for applications and scripts. Some AVs have HIPS modules but this approach would be too complex and inconvenient for most users. [/QUOTE]
