That sounds more like drugs from a Meth Labs and not from AV labs.

Agree with @roger_m, choices on install do you want a VPN added running in the background whether you use it or not? etc, etc, etc, However the lemmings out there who have no idea if there on foot or horseback choose the most options there are as they feel more is better, more will give me higher protection! Nerds like us on here are a fraction of the populace, of course we are correct, crazy but correct, I do try to educate & people do listen but if they can get something 'as they think' for nothing then one option only

I can handle their prompts; Avast/AVG is my fav 3rd party AV currently.

AVG IS is one of my favourite solution. But I am not a fan of their free version. I never paid more than $2/year for the paid version.
