Any Antivirus that doesn't promise or offer a total security or a bunch of features when they have premium version, and they offer a lot of features in Free Version. (Avast, 360 Total Security (Qihoo), AVG) they are excluided from my list, never install them in any computer can be from friend, family never. « Because you are the product, and that is a shame, I don't want to be a product and seeing these "antivirus" selling my data to pay their servers.
Right now, I'm using Windows Defender.
But generally I use ESET, Kaspersky or GData. (For me the best Antivirus suite are BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET, GData and Emsisoft).

I'm swichting between Webroot or Panda with Voodooshield or OsArmor. Or Eset only. Why? I wanna have the maximum performance on my gaming system

At the moment I'm using Eset Internet Security with HitmanPro.Alert.
- Eset for the great Signatures and Web protection
- HMPA for the zero-day capabilities
Both are super light and a perfect combo for a gaming setup I'd say.

Have you tried BullGuard? I've heard some positive things about BullGuard, especially when gaming.
Here's one performance test BullGuard vs. Norton vs. McAfee

ESET Nod32 because lightweight, good protection, and good support on the forum.
Immunet because I trust Cisco, is light and I like it being community based
How are licenses managed without an account?

I mean, You can activate the paid versions and continue working without the need of register/connect in "My Kaspersky" service, but KSCloud Free and paid both need to register: How to activate Kaspersky Security Cloud 20
All the Cloud Versions of Kaspersky require an account, is only optional for the other products.
Unique ID and E-Mail, you don't need an account.

Forticlient for the web filtering. Signatures are good, too, and it's the ideal match for Comodo Firewall...
a trustworthy company from a trustworthy country. i mean, if the hell's angels made an AV solution, who would be ignorant enough to use it? if a person lived in a country where they could be killed or imprisoned for having a particular political or religious belief, and that country had an AV solution that scanned your system and uploaded it for analysis ... you could end up dead. in some of those countries, the government has complete access to all that data. and in others, someone working at the AV could report you for something on your system that violates some blasphemy laws. with me, I don't have to worry about that dynamic, but still, why would I support such an AV? and on a level that does affect me ... imagine if north Korea made an AV, and we know that they are hacking bitcoin exchanges, would you use such an AV if you had bitcoin, or were doing online banking, or etc? I've always suspected that there is a small group of people that have had their bitcoin lifted from their systems, that run suspect software from untrustworthy companies. and they don't even know what happened, only that they were hacked. and possibly hacked by software that they paid for, lol. the irony.

No changes here. Webroot along with Osarmour. I do have hitman, but I only use it once a month or something.
For me "K" is the best, the full Internet Security Suite tweaked is tough to get through.
Alternatively the free "K" Anti Virus with VoodooShield is incredibly strong.

I am using F-secure total for the following reason:
- Decent Protection
- Low RAM usage
- Support (livechat and community forum)

Better off with something else as the detection rate of the cloud modules has went downhill from when I used to use it.
You could enable the Clam AV but then that would make it heavier.
