Also agree. The worst virus I ever experienced was Free AVG and all its other equally bad colleagues
I just use Windows essentials. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David O'Brien Sent: Wednesday, 24 August 2016 8:37 a.m. To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] Anti-virus software Agreed. If you are not the sort to go randomly browsing, and are careful with emails, Windows Defender or Security Essentials are fine and don't nag too much. I have only had a virus in the last ten years when looking for infections on a sacrificial machine. Some infections bypass all anti-virus programs, especially if someone runs a program or script from an email, and if the user allows it. The best defense is being careful and alert. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ross Levis Sent: Tuesday, 23 August 2016 10:38 pm To: 'NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List' <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [DUG] Anti-virus software I just use Microsoft Defender built into Windows 8/10. Never had any viruses using that. Detects viruses, malware, spyware, etc. For Win7, free Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John C Sent: Tuesday, 23 August 2016 7:45 p.m. To: 'NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List' Subject: [DUG] Anti-virus software Hi all I'm already for too long on a free version of AVG. Seems ok but not good enough I guess, plus I'm getting bombarded with daily advertising about upgrading. So the BIG question is; should I stay with AVG and upgrade or should I go (back) to MacAfee or perhaps Norton, or any other? Any suggestions and recommendations appreciated.
