Hi,
Honestly, I do not believe so much in independent testing labs. I believe my own testing. However, I could see that Windows Defender has a low-to-average detection rates whenever I am downloading new malware packs. Of course I know that WIndows has ELAM, UAC, and Smart Screen.
But, is Windows Defender enough for daily computing and regular surfing? Or should I try other AV?
Is this setup enough for basic computing/surfing?:
Windows Defender
Windows Firewall
K9 Web Protection (against porn and malware)
UAC Default
SmartScreen Default
MCShield 3
Surfing habits: basic searching and email, very low social networking, no porn
Thanks.
