[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 89360, post: 915064"] AVG and Avast aren’t really heavy, I’ve been testing them extensively and I keep posting everything I find in the thread “Avast Premium Security 20.9” under reviews. You can make the product even lighter, by enabling McAfee-style scans (only on execution). In addition, you might turn off HTTPS scanning to reduce the performance impact whilst browsing. Even if you don’t do anything, they are still very light and receive frequent updates, and performance improvements. AVG is far less annoying than Avast and has better UI/UX. If they were really heavy, I’d be the first one to uninstall them 😀 As for the FortiClient, it’s awesome if you run new and paid version, but the free version is outdated and not that great. It’s also quite limited on features. This product is not the best for home use. [/QUOTE]
