Avast is garbage and I have no idea why people recommend it on /g/. Even the paid versions are bloated crap that resembles malware.

this has been here for fucking years lol

I meant choose between the two you dork.
I've used the new Bitdefender AV Plus paid version and it's a great AV but fucking super heavy, "photon technology" my ass. Booting instantly became 500% slower. Also has some other bloat like Paysafe but its nothing in comparison to Avast.

i used to use Kaspersky a few years ago and it was fine. is it bloat spyware now?
>>51705026
>not using sandboxie for everything
are you even trying?
>>51705220
You should've used a / instead of a , you fucktard. 500% slower = 500% bloat. If your pc was clean before shutting off, why the fuck would it need to be scanned before boot?

>Common Sense lite tier: MSE, Avira Free
>Paranoid tier: Not using Windows for anything that's not related to videogames and windows exclusive software

Fixed it for you.
If you're so careless and retarded that you need anything more than MSE you should probably kill yourself or use a retard friendly OS like OSX/Linux.
>>51704782
Your OS already spies on everything you do, what's wrong with letting your AV do the same?
>>51705104
I used to be good until the minute it stealth installed Google Chrome. It didn't even ask you if you wanted it, it just straight up installed it without you asking.
Never again
>>51705311
IIRC it's for rootkits that execute before boot. So very government agent tier.
