What Antivirus are you using?
Used to use Windows Defender, but that thing is horrible at protecting you from malware.
Now went to AVG, since I heard it got much better. It's definitely better, but it still pushes it's crappy online protection on you.
I'll probably use nothing in the future though.

None, antivirus is so 2000 early. Most of them come with free malware one way or the other.

Avast + Malwarebyte combine
However most of the time I use my brain aka don't go to stupid website or click on stupid link on your email

None on my primary PC (it's a mac, I don't need antivirus)
Windows Defender on my gaming Win10 PC (I install only games from Steam, so i don't need an Antivirus).
None on my notepad (I use only Autocad)
Avira on my other WinXP desktop (but I use it only at working).

"It's a mac, I don't need anitvirus."
I'm trying to keep a straight face. Honestly.
"I install only games from Steam, so I don't need an Antivirus."
Whatever works for you, bro.

My cousin was told she didn't need an Antivirus on her Mac, so she uninstalled it. She got infected two days later.

Just like on a Windows PC. As long as you know what you're doing there's very little risk.
For the Lambda user who has no clue and will click on anything, an Antivirus is definitely required.

5 years without antivirus, zero virus or malware installed...

On my gaming pc I have AVG, but on my laptop I have none (well, unless you can call windows defender an AV program...). As long as you know what you are doing and don't just go to all kinds of random sites and only download from trusted sources, then you really have no need for an AV.

I've been using avast! for a while now and while it's been working for me, I wonder if there is a better one out there.
