  • To whom more was given more will be required.
    • Never go to a psychiatrist, adopt a straycat or dog. On the street they live only two years average.

I had removed McAfee av and are using Wdef, seems W10 is a bit faster.

I've had Norton, then Avast and now I'm using Kaspersky.

IMO, they all pretty much do the same thing equally well.

And install Ad Block Plus or a similar ad blocker. It doesn't stop everything but it keeps 90+% of the bad stuff from getting near your machine.

I've had bitdefender (requires downloading program from cloud, which I find onerous; I couldn't get it to download to a few computers), Kaspersky (which I find way too intrusive and time consuming) and Eset.  I liked Eset the best in terms of use.

I've installed both Java (MUST have it) and Flash on all my machines (6).
