[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 86663, post: 870093"] The answer is not security software. Most of what people do on these forums is utter overkill. But then that is because these forums attract those pre-disposed to irrational paranoia who are going to use security software and configurations that are out of proportion to reality. Microsoft already does well enough job of protecting systems. The data supports this fact. It is marketers, click-bait sites and software publishers that make people think that they are not protected. One can offer up a million item list that supports security software and then at the same time one can offer up a 10 million item list that supports that it is hype and overkill. Paying for any security software is a waste of money. [/QUOTE]
