Iāve used āAvira Freeā for years and Iāve never had any problems and my computers tend to get plenty of high risk use ā¦ lots of torrent dlās from the likes of P Bay and streaming vid from dubious sources ā¦ and I still do my banking etc. without ever having had any security issues.
Thereās also a paid version with exactly the same level of antivirus security, it just comes with a few extra features. Iāve never bothered with it thoā, the freebies excellent.
Iād definitely recommend it.
Windows Defender on my Win 10 box
Sophos Home on my Win 7 Box
Nothing on my mobile but then I donāt do anything other than surf on that and NEVER any online transactions or banking stuff.
I know a mate in Security and āOnly idiots do thatā
I aināt a tech
PS got hacked on an Appleā¦
Ah bless theyāre supposed to be immune arenāt they?
Avast - keep me clean whilst being dirty
So we were led to believe,
Although it could have been an inside job by the IT Tech am still investigating that one.
Avast, been using for a few years not had any problems. Main risk I seem to face is email and other account hacks rather than viruses.
McAfee at work, which is shite, particularly for programmers in a corporate environment.
You see, one of the biggest threats a virus checker looks for is code, especially script.
So, every time I try to compile one of my projects, McAfee decides that my entire fucking project is a festering pile of toxicity, then proceeds to check every single fucking file for virii.
My work machine I use to connect to my clients takes about 90 seconds to compile anything. Any other machine I have does it in about 10-15 seconds.
Bullguard at home.
Iāve used AVG for a looong time without trouble. Mrs Slowlane had McAfee on her Dell laptop which was pre-installedā¦I recently replaced it for her with AVG which she much prefers.
My experience with McAfee is itās shitā¦tries to take over everything by treating you like an idiot.
AVG is a very good AV and popular. I used to use it trouble free before Aviraā¦ The only reason I changed was AVG became Pirate Bay āunfriendlyā which I seem to remember being something to do with a US Government inititive at the time, against piracy.
Avast is a good one too
ā¦ so just in case youāre confused now, if it starts with an āAā, chances are itās good 
So dont go with the Russians sponsered by a UK bank then?
I use Windows Defender and have my firewall on, not had any trouble,
Used to use Avast or was it AVG but having to re-register every year was a bit of a pain.
Not immune. Just not popular enough to be worthy of as much attention.
I use paid-for Avast.
Have had no problems, but am starting to get pished off by the increasing messages highlighting āissuesā that Avast can solve, if I pay more.
Think my LinkedIn account has been hacked because I get a lot of emails from contacts which usually contain a link to somewhere, but my email spam filter catches them.
So overall Iām pretty happy online these days.

Better class of hooker and a bloke called Vladimir who has his own Glock
The girls offshore all wear coveralls and Vlad is a safety officer who frowns on automatic pistols for some reason.
