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

[QUOTE="monkeylove, post: 968828, member: 19756"] From what I read, some of the AVs test in AV-Comparatives are free versions. For your second and third point, I used KSC Free, but I noticed that a slow down took place in some machines, and in one with Adguard for Windows, problems with browsing. Also, popup notifications could not be removed, and they are tricky: you can't close them unless you click on the button to show that you want to learn more, and then close that window. So, now we're all using Avast Free, but I had to set it to silent mode; otherwise, they'll keep asking me about popups. LOL. [/QUOTE]
