Best, fastest windows antivirus choice of 2016 ? (Besides common sense ver. 2017.2345_Beta)

Most antiviruses are worse than the viruses themselves.

>>52246019

Antiviruses are scams not technology

how to get payed solution AntiVirus for free without risking malware

- download Eset NOD32, its pure antivirus, no bundled shit
- enable 30 days free trial
- when it ends, google "eset trial keys"
- get another one, lasting 1-3 months

these keys can be used by multiple users so no, they are not taken... they just run out

do this few times a year and enjoy quality, very light AV, where you are not bothered by advertisements or some deep entanglement in to the system bullshit. Also it has the lowest rate of false positives, so no fucking up your cracks and activation tools.

but you should go linux anyway, windows on dualboot for games only

All AVs are snake oil.

Malwarebytes

Windows Defender is fine, Malwarebytes for file scanner.

Anything heavier is just pointless shit for idiots browsing with ads and scripts running.
>>
>>52246019
Fucking 2016!
Windows has a built in antivirus, mac and linux users don't need an antivirus.
>>
>>52246154
>quality, very light AV
this.

i also use Avast when i want to feel more secure. I like the national-security tier hooters claiming a virus has been detected

will it really protect you though ?

Used Kaspersky but my license doesn't work anymore and I'm not willing to spend money when I still have this license.

>>52246019
Malwarebytes and ublock origin. That's all you need
>>
gone try NOD

Own brain
>>
>>52246019
who is this semen demon?

Apart from uBlock, I have MBAM for scans and Bitdefender free edition for active shit, just in case. BD really doesn't take up any resources at all, but it does great in synthetic tests.

>>52246019
clamav

this is another variant of common sense, but still in the alpha

>Actually running an antivirus in 2016

Just leave that shit alone, it's not necessary. Don't run shady programmes, install 64 but windows 10 and you are done.
>>
>>52246858
>64 bit windows
128 bit OS when?
>>
>>52246019
eset or kaspersky. If your on windows 10 it has one built in anyway.
>>
>>52246019
Should I try Dr Web?

MSE for general purpose.

If you get fucked, use MBAM to remove it, then remove MBAM and continue with your life.

There is people on this board that don't use GNU/Linux and need an antivirus?

FTFY
kids need their games and configuring wine is too hard for most of them
>>
>>52248144
WINE doesn't support everything.
>>
>>52248161
If there is a will there is always a way
>>
>>52248183
Ok but I don't have the will to make every game I want to play that doesn't work on WINE work with WINE. I'd rather just use Windows to play them instead.
>>
>>52248201
fuck linux, it's not ready for anything than servers and ricing
>>
>>52248222
Honestly I'd probably use it if I didn't play games.
>>
>needing antiviruses

if you're experienced enough you'll never get those
>>
>>52248241
only for shitposting on /g/, no real commercial grade productivity tools like PS, etc. when pros
adopt Linux that's then the year of the linux desktop happens

I play games and I am using
its called dualbooting
the nicest thing is seriously feeling secure as hell while at the same time playing all that cracked shit mallware ridden releases from torrents
>>
>>52248305
>its called dualbooting
I can't do that because I have shit I need to keep running all the time which dualbooting will kill.

2 servers and torrents

>>52248360
what kind of servers
torrents most definitely can go with reboot faggot
>>
>>52248374
>what kind of servers
Never you mind desu, just shit I keep up for my friends.
>torrents most definitely can go with reboot faggot
It's not about not being able to shut down it's that I want 24/7 up time.

Don't call me a weeb, I fucking hate weebs.

I could and will build a server in the future but right now I can't afford it. To be honest I'm considering both doing that and building a second PC instead of upgrading my existing one so I can run all 3.
