bobd Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 One of the most frustrating things is which antivirus prog to buy. Searching the web doesn't help, because I just don't believe some of the ratings. I have bidefender, & I liked for a few years. With the occasional clashes it has with DCS world etc., I'm shopping for something else. I'm leaning towards Kaspersky. Any opinions welcomed. Thanks, Asus ROG Z390, I9 9900K , 32 GB DDR4, EVGA GTX 2080 Ti , Win10 64, Rift CV1 & S VR
cichlidfan Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I use Kaspersky and have been reasonably happy with it. Conflicts are minimal and it is fairly controllable. I have used many other and this one seems to annoy me the least.

Deadman Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 Eset NOD 32 used from 2000 no problems or virus infections and it uses very little resources. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.
Thick8 Posted September 14, 2014 Posted September 14, 2014 I used Microsoft Security Essentials for several years with no virus issues at all. When I upgrade to Windows 7 a couple of years ago and then Windows 8 I started using the built in Windows Defender and firewall as the replacement for MSE. I've had probably about 100 notifications that viruses where caught and being cleaned while using the Microsoft products but have had no adverse issues requiring any action on my part.

arriflex Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 I run AntiMlaware Bytes and Hitman Pro. Seems to be a good combo according to the intertubes.

There's no point in using anything else (though antimalware bytes l in addition is a good idea), there's little difference between the products and the windows one is one of the lightest and in theory works best with windows.

JayPee Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 IF you know what you are doing MSE offers more than enough protection and so far it is the least demanding AV around. Just don't have the wife and kids click on every single link Google comes up with. i7 4790K: 4.8GHz, 1.328V (manual) MSI GTX 970: 1,504MHz core, 1.250V, 8GHz memory
Pepec9124 Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Since my Windows partition is mostly set up for games I'm not using any. Previously Norton.
KLR Rico Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 On my sim computer I don't use AV. On everything else I just use windows defender and common sense. i5-4670K@4.5GHz / 16 GB RAM / SSD / GTX1080 Rift CV1 / G-seat / modded FFB HOTAS
