Anyone else having trouble with Windows 10 and Viruses

[Ludlow]

Been running windows 10 since it was first released. Use the built in virus software and firewall. No problems. No infections. Edge was problematic to begin with but is working fine now. It's installed on 2 desktops and 2 laptops.

That's because you're smarter than everyone else right Pudney?

Been running windows 10 on 3 machines since July/ august with AVG and malwarebytes on all three ,,, and once in a while one or the other will block a possible PUP application
Like any new operating system it takes some study and getting used to...no better or worst than any new gadget you buy like a different phone etc.

I feel the same way about Norton. I use AVG.

I use AVG as well, I can accept that AVG is in the service of the KGB (or whatever they're called now) in return for keeping my machine running.

Indeed, the choice of antivirus is a very complicated question, because everything must be taken into account here. From your PC CPU up to the recommended software. Nowadays there are even specialized ones that can be applied for any software.

I would have thought that it was Kaspersky spying on you.

I have a hell of a bad summer cold, right now that the antivirus software didn't catch.

Earth to CC, those give illnesses rather than preventing any. Quit licking your fingers.

Don't use keyboards, anymore ... except when I'm doing CAD drawings.
