Posted July 24, 2018 Hello, I'll be soon joining the university and will be living in dormitory for a while. There may be some notorious kids as well, who will intentionally try to infect my pc for their own good. My main concern is to avoid getting infected when they insert pendrive or share some file via e-mail. I remember watching a video which i'm not able to find (dont remember if it was made by LTT) where he told to use some softwares like sandbox/virtual machine to open files which you suspect to have virus/malware. So if you know please tell. I rely on just Microsoft Essential for protection, should I consider getting anti-virus/anti-malware software? LTT forums have many advanced users so you guys would know what all I should do...so please help. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 24, 2018 Sandboxie, personally just don't run any exe. Malwarebytes is good for pdf/Microsoft office exploit. Magical Pineapples
