>are there any other good ones(free)?
There are ZERO good """""anti-virus"""""" programs.

>how many anti virus should i have before i can feel safe against viruses?
ZERO, if you install ONE anti-virus Program you have already installed your first virus.

>dad is insistent that he needs anti-virus for his computer
>no dad, you don't need it, just use your brain
>No, you don't understand I HAVE to have antivirus to protect my computer! Why can't you just give me a recommendation?
>Okay, go to google and type in malwarebytes and download that
>He downloads from cnet instead of malwarebytes.com
>Clicks yes to all the toolbars/malware
>Why do I have these toolbars???
>*internally screaming*
>You went to malwarebytes.com right, not some other website
>I don't know, I just clicked on the first result
>Christ, you downloaded from the wrong website, this is the one you should've downloaded from instead
>Oh okay, thanks!
>He uninstalls malwarebytes, and then BUYS malwarebytes from the website instead of downloading the free version
>Later conversation: "So I bought that antivirus you recommended"
>You wot m8
>I bought that malware thing
>Malwarebytes? I only recommended that to you because it was free...
>Oh. Dangit I knew I should've called you up again before buying it.

fuck off

he wants protection, and if hes that computer illiterate, he needs real time protection (which isn't free)

antivirus has literally been unnecessary for 10 years now

>le common sense maymay haha i'm so smart and superior than the plebs

listen, nigger, to think that you're smarter than every malware maker or exploiter you're pure delusional
To think that the only tool you need to spot viruses is your msconfig startup tab or your task manager, you're stupid.
there are hundreds of malware that exploits the OS (like conficker, Kido, Wannacry, etc)
Even a PDF can give you viruses

I used to have the same mentality as you until i found a secrar malware despite that steam is my only download source.

>>61850209
linux is free

>>61854551
>thinks that antivirus progs actually detect more than 20% of all viruses
>thinks anti viruses can actualy remove trojans/viruses
KEK neo/g/ everyone, you can take an old ass trojan script and make it undetectable to any anti viruses in under 5min....

>>61854551
>using wincuck
there is your problem normi

care to explain how?
i never said i'm positively secure now, i'm 100% sure that there's something spying on me right now.

my last solution is to get a new hard drive and switch to linux, maybe tails OS

memes aside I like using the free bitdefender thing for some peace of mind. It's super lightweight.

>>61850240
This, just use brain, it doesnt use CPU

ugh normies

>>61854551
windows has been secure in and of itself for 10 years kiddo

it's not about being smarter or using tools
it's that infection has been objectively impossible for that whole time
the only way to get a virus in 2017 is to install it yourself

>>61856773
Explain how i got my secrar then

i've had this new PC for 3 months, clean windows install and everything, i literally never ever downloaded anything that isn't from steam.

>>61856824
you probably used firefox which circumvents windows security
or some game or app you bought ran as admin and the vulnerability came in that way
or you ran steam as admin which allowed a loophole in its service to grant root access

or you committed the ultimate stupidity and disabled uac in which case get fucked

all of which could have been prevented with common sense

>don't use your computer at all if you don't want to get malware, this is common sense: the post
holy fuck you're denser than gold

>>61856928
it's very simple
use a sandboxed browser
don't run shit as admin unless you are installing something you trust
very very simple

>>61856965
nah
fuck that
fuck all of it
i'm gonna get linux

>>61857013
>implying linux is any different
do you go sudo-ing random programs you found on linux? idiot.

>>61857037
of course i'm not gonna go around installing random shit, i didn't even need to do that to get the secrar in my winshit

but linux has far less malware and exploits which would prevent the stealthier shit (like you listed) from sneaking in, especially security oriented ones like tails OS

>>61854551 LAFF @ This millenial goy.

>listen, nigger, to think that you're smarter than every malware maker or exploiter you're pure delusional

Whatever, goy. You should JEWgle to the term 0-day. Your JEW-antimalware keeps out known shit. Not the new ones.

>To think that the only tool you need to spot viruses is your msconfig startup tab or your task manager, you're stupid.

Harden it. Spot every single connection that's unneeded. Spot every read and write in system and document folders.

>there are hundreds of malware that exploits the OS (like conficker, Kido, Wannacry, etc)

NetBIOS and SMB are worth every malware they get.

>Even a PDF can give you viruses

Yes, if you're dumb enough to open into your botnet browser. downlpad it and open witha 3rd party tool that's blocked in your fucking firewall.

>I used to have the same mentality as you until i found a secrar malware despite that steam is my only download source.

STEAMFAG GO. You opened a pajjet trainer while online. You deserved it,
Goy.

At least he has a good AV now

Agree with >>61854485 and also since infections can occurr even just visiting a website via drive by download even a power user can benefit from an AV


What do you guys think about bitdefender? Is it good for a weak PC?

>>61857120
This is BS as monitoring everything is impossible, anyway do you think it's better to use Firefox's integrated PDF (not acrobat) plugin or to dl them?

>>61854127
this, but most of the time I just use Linux anyway
