What antivirus do you use, if you use it?

[ruitti99]

Avast Internet security (I got a year free because I installed it on 7 computers)

[iAsuno]

I use avast and malwarebytes pro. I switched from avg. The funny thing is, avast suggests that i remove the remnants of avg in my PC.

[Charezon]

ESET NOD32 8 and Malwarebytes Anti Malware

[kameshss]

Windows Defender all the time! 

[gergy008]

i am anti-virus

 

Yeah anyone with common sense and computer literacy is able to avoid viruses/malware/exploitation.

[Octagoncow]

AVG and Malwarebytes. However, I can't remember the last time they actually caught anything.

[Horrorfull]

Windows Firewall and my brain.

[Speedbird]

MSE + Malwarebytes. Never got any malware.

[Sandvich]

Avg and malwarebytes for anti malware.

[LudoTheGreat]

The number of people using AVG is scary. As someone who regularly recovers data for people due to viruses, AVG is the most used antivirus on the infected rigs. It misses so much stuff I'll never trust it, even if I did use an AV. Is I am going to put an AV on a machine it is ESET NOD32. No questions asked.

[MLG Doge]

Defender then Ad-Aware antivirus

[Ptopman]

Microsoft Security Essentials and MalwareBytes Pro. Never have any viruses or malware and why they do get on it quarantines them immediately. 

[Norwegiantweaker]

i like to live on the edge so i dont use anything and i only download torrents marked as virus 

[flibberdipper]

Avast Free, MalwareBytes Anti-Exploit, and MalwareBytes Anti-Malware. All running live, and doing a hell of a job. Not saying I don't trust my sister's computer... But I don't trust it.

[TheSSVids]

MS Security Essentials is plenty.

[Opcode]

[Akolyte]

Malwarebytes pro and Microsoft EMET.  Oh, and Sandboxie. 

[Photonic]

No reason to use one, common sense is good enough.

 

Common sence want always help you never know a website you regularly visit could become comprised an started to spread viruses and malware

[Akolyte]

Avast Free, MalwareBytes Anti-Exploit, and MalwareBytes Anti-Malware. All running live, and doing a hell of a job. Not saying I don't trust my sister's computer... But I don't trust it.

Umm.  Woah, I'd call that overkill but it protects good though  

[Totallycasual]

I just use MSE in conjunction with chrome+noscript addon, i think if you're smart about your browsing habits you protect yourself from most things. 

[x-eagleeye-x]

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus. I'm pretty sensitive when I see a performance hit when using AVs, but this one had virtually no impact on overall performance, most especially game performance. Very satisfied with it.

 

I too came from Common Sense Anti-Virus, but I was an idiot to think downloading stuff from dubious websites and torrents was the only way I could possibly get it. It's easy to get cocky when you know a lot about how your PC works etc etc, but the threats out there are evolving too fast. No reason to stick with common sense, especially when there are options out there that have very, very, very minimal effect on performance.

[Sors]

Kaspersky.

Yep, and when allot of them hide in the boot sector of the hard drive and run before Windows loads.

[ObeseWalrus]

Malwarebytes, and the one Windows 8.1 comes included with.

[TicTac]

I dont use any and i deleted the ms crap that the windows wanted me to use and note i have never had a virus in my 4 years of no av crap
