[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 974666, member: 92939"] Hello :) Even if the Crypto system is not activated by default, I think it's outrageous to put one. Antivirus is supposed to block this kind of attack, not install it in a sneaky way.... (even if it is disabled by default) On the other hand, I think that Avast/AVG will also include a crypto system since they have been bought by Norton. If they do that, Microsoft will be happy with Microsoft Defender because everyone will migrate to it, free, very powerful and without crypto 😉 [/QUOTE]
