Hi /g/
I need free antivirus for windoze;
-Must have low memory footprint
-Must be a(i)ds free
-Must have real-time protection
-Must be login-free
Is such a thing even exist?
pic semi retarded
Microsoft Security Essentials.

Just use Windows Defender, or MSE if you're < windows 8. Those are the best options really

Pretty much this. Or you could switch to Linux. Those are your best options.
>>62431303
Common sense + whitelisting firewall you fucking idiot.
>>62431320
that uses 170 MB doing nothing
is that even relevant today?
>>62431303
kaspersky free
it'll ask you to login everytime you start your computer, but it never obliges you to do so

fuck that shit!

no

I haven't used windows in ages. Not sure if Avast is still decent, but it's free and I remember it not consuming too much memory. In fact it won a 2016 memory usage test.

It's more relevant then the other free shit that offers half a service and it's seriously better than the paid products as well. Just stick to it, and if 170 MB of ram is too much for you than just move to Linux since it doesn't look you're doing any gaming

>whitelisting firewall
what should i whitelist? 4chan?
you fucking idiot!
>>62431303
dat filename
hosts file + ublock origin

>being this fucking retarded
yeah an "antivirus" would be better for you
>>62431391
literally no proof it contains spyware, and kaspersky proposed to show the source code to the us government
>>62431401
tx, i'll look into it
>>62431346
People don't use antivirus in Linux?

kaspersky if you want actual protection.
>>62433384
Hasn't failed me so far.

There's clamAV but getting a virus in Linux is extremely rare. You literally need to install some shady shit on purpose. And that requires you to put in your password to do it.
panda antivirus
>>62431303
MSE + Voodoshield + Winblows Firewall
Close all malware vectors yourself and you won't need anti virus
>>62433055
Some people do. I think there are some legit options out there. I want to say Sophos, F-Secure, and at least a few others have Linux options.
