[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 107474, post: 1078147"] Same here, this week I played with a few AV's (MBAM, AVAST, Bitdefender free) because I use WHHL and read in an old thread (posted by a ForgottenSeer) that it might have benefits to use a different AV (than MD) when using the whitelisting of WDAC-ISG. I honestly felt no difference on my laptop (I did not measure anything so it is only the impression, not based on hard data). With Avast I had to disable DLL protection of MD's exploit protection (only allowing M$ signed dll's in M$ userland processes is something which I value highly), Bitdefender to often told me it blocked something (for example Github and even streaming TV connections of Ziggo/UPC) because of suspicious certificates and I really liked MBAM V5, but it did poor in Cruel Sister's test, so I returned to Defender again. Anyway Defender on MAX with WHHL adding WDAC-ISG and SRP blocking risky file extensions, I think I am well protected considering I am not a risky surfer and have recently added only one (1) program in the last four years (WinOptimiser25 full version freebie posted in MT giveaway's thread).
