Hi everyone,

Thank you for your splendid response to the latest Best of the Year Antivirus/Suite polls and Pro's & Con's review section of various antiviruses. :)

This thread will solely focus on how to configure various antivirus/suites for Best Protection in 2018.
Each week we could discuss about a new software so there's plenty of time to configure our systems ;)

Few pointers:
  • If possible you can provide screenshots for the same. If you can record a video of it, it could be a lot easier! :D (There's no harm in just giving a text-based tutorial too)
  • You specifically don't need to know all the tweaks required for best protection, but if you know any, it could help others a lot.
  • If you think a tweak can cause degradation in performance you might also highlight it for reference.

Let's start alphabetically?

Posted something similar elsewhere, so keep in mind the following:

Default settings are usually well-balanced between security and performance.
  • Higher security settings may have a profound affect on system performance
  • Lower security settings may affect your product's protection capabilities

Not much configuring except disabling %ProgramFiles% (x86)\360\Total Security\PromoUtil.exe through your firewall to stop annoying ads.

Also, I like to disable "Show boot time after system startup" and "Show daily news at" under options.
