Any reason in particular or just because of the frustrations that I had mentioned?

I got the impression that you are not completely satisfied with the current option, and personally I was in that situation and tried out most of the security software until I found a satisfactory solution. There is nothing wrong with sticking to a proven solution Wink

Btw, have guys tried Zonealarm Antivirus and Firewall? I find their firewall component superb too! Smiley

I used ZoneAlarm Security more than 5 years, and I agree that their firewall was then one of the best one could have. The whole security package was great, but at one point I wanted to try something new and found Norton as a worthy successor.

Personally, I don't think paid services are necessary. Windows Defender is more than good enough as a primary antivirus, especially when used in conjunction with Malwarebytes and good browser add-ons...


I read the article on the link you posted, and the conclusion is that only Microsoft can make a good security solution and that the Windows Defender only thing we need. But at the same time, Microsoft Windows 10 is one big spy machine that collects a huge amount of data and sends it for analysis. Malwarebytes Premium version is not free, and a free version does not have any protection, it is only for scan&remove.
