• What's the hate with Norton?

  According to AV websites (av-test.org and av-comparatives.org), both show Norton as being one of the top recommended antivirus software suites you can purchase right now. I can understand if you don't like Norton for its past, knowing Norton used to bog down system resources and sometimes made the computer run slower, but this was years ago like 2010 the last time I can remember Norton slowing down my PC lol...

• Which of the free options would be best for Windows 11? I'm only allowed to choose from the attached list.

  So, the ONLY anti-virus resource I always go to (And, everybody else should go to) is av-comparatives.org. Source: 11 months ago

• Norton 360

  Norton has a good block rate on av-comparatives.org in the real-world tests. It is pretty consistent. Source: about 1 year ago

• Hello what is the best antivirus to download I currently have avast

  I don't understand why you're getting downvoted for this. Sites like av-test.org and av-comparatives.org are managed by independent research organizations. They use objective testing criteria to evaluate commercial products, which is a far more reliable way of getting useful information than, "well, my experience is..." or "I read this one thing about x product..." Sure, people have different priorities when it... Source: almost 2 years ago

• I am a cybersec major. My books and professors tell me Windows Defender is no good and I need a good anti-malware, but online I see people claiming Defender is fine. Who should I listen to, the professionals or random Internet people?

  Check out av-comparatives.org, they're doing about the best that can be done to compare anti-virus software, their most recent test results are here:. Source: over 2 years ago
