Title: What antivirus do you use?
Post by: Yeti on April 18, 2014, 11:56:05 PM: Not the most exciting topic of discussion, I know, but I'm just curious what antivirus people are using nowadays. I'm thinking I might want to switch.

Post by: benjipwns on April 19, 2014, 12:02:43 AM: I have ClamWin installed and I update it sometimes while bored. But I don't think I've run it to scan in over three years.

Microsoft Security Essentials sometimes quarantines random game files though.

Don't hate on a nixxer?

Seriously though, I only use Microsoft Security Essentials. Haven't had it grab any game files yet. That and Ad-block. So far so uneventful.

avast

I've been a big advocate for Avast in the past, but recently they've started putting advertisements and nagware in the mix. I haven't yet figured out how to tell it that I'm not going to sign up for their cleanup subscription bullshit.
