[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1035226, member: 99014"] For seniors, I would go with Kaspersky, due to its ability to detect and remove tools associated with remote control - these tools in turn are associated with SCAM. Kaspersky automatically applies all actions necessary whenever a threat is found. I would never put Eset on somebody not knowledgeable enough’s PC. Eset is good when HIPS and firewall can be managed and it is a parade of alerts - every process generates one and then there is (or at least was) a UAC prompt to confirm the actions. Without properly-managed HIPS, Eset is useless. Bitdefender is great, but there is too much going on there. Kaspersky overall provides cleaner experience. All notifications use the standard Windows API and can be switched off through the Windows setttings. Also, may I ask why F-Secure is not considered? It is effective, light, quiet and very much down to business. Norton as well. Avast has detailed alerts configuration and McAfee rarely displays any. Why does it have to be one of these three? You don’t wanna purchase another one? [/QUOTE]
