[QUOTE="davidhk129, post: 3369, member: 4"] It has been more than 18 months since I last used a 3rd party AV. Since Win 8.1, I use only the built-in Windows Defender as my Real-time Protection, and Malwarebytes free edition as my On-demand Protection. All that I have to do is regularly run Malwarebytes to make sure the machine is clean. I never have had any security issue. I am doing the same on my Insider Preview since build 9841. Of course, security starts from how a user uses the computer. No security programs are adequate unless users are mindful of the "dos " and "don'ts" of internet surfing. If you are using the computer [B]at work[/B], then, perhaps a 3rd party AV is called for. [/QUOTE]
