[QUOTE="DDE_Server, post: 876332, member: 65727"] Yes you are right to test non experienced user and expect worst case scenarios from them but those users also doesnot have the sufficient knowledge to disable all real time protection especially in WD which is considered hard to tune/with non initiative user interface (some parameters also is configured only using group policy editor) that not realistic at all. Also consider in most cases those people used more automated / user friendly solutions which remove malware and users are always trust then blindly and remove the threat which is natural reaction when any AV find a threat(except some cases where user may trust the malicious file such as crack and follow the instructions to disable real time protection although the AV tell the user there a virus and that user should be punished by the infection 😂😂 ) [/QUOTE]
