Nah m8, AVs are useless bloatware pieces of shit
You don't need them if you have head on your shoulders
>>
>>59574491
Nope. Antivirus is more likely to get you pwned than save you in 2017. They're all written like shit and they all have system permissions.

Run Common Sense Current Year Edition and you'll be fine.

You are all stupid. The right way to use them is to only use them offline. i.e. never use them in "live monitoring" versions, and if you suspect you have anything dangerous going on, THEN scan.

PS. and whoever claims he never has to scan anything is a stupid idiot or a manchild secluded into booboontoo.

>>59574491
No, they're useless.

>you guys are all retarded the best way to use a condom is to put it on after you had sex

Yeah you don't need AV to realize you are infected with shit like Bonzai buddy. But there is plenty of shit that you will never know is on your system until you scan for it.

any website that uses ads is vulnerable to hijacking. Even with adblockers installed redirects and what not are possible depending on the site.
>>
>>59575458
also any site that uses a CMS. those things get owned all the time.

As a total windows 7 normie, I just run malwarebytes' scanner and adware scanner every other day and ccleaner every day. I haven't really had any hiccups but I'm sure someone is taking my info and using it. But how the fuck do you honestly stop that nowadays without migrating fully into Linux
>>
They're not needing unless your pirating things imo. Just use common sense 360 it's the best antivirus and some people might not agree with this but use MBAM to scan for malware, it's helped me out a couple of times.

If you're installing something fishy do it in a VM and see the after effects but that's an insane precaution DESU.

I've used MSE on my computer for years and never have a problem unless I download a file I know will trip it (like Daz's loader)
