Ive been using McAfee Life safe for my pc's, phones, tablets etc.. but for some reason last month it started treating swath/twx as a threat. ive set both programs as safe. but still keeps deleting them. tech supports reply was that if they are being deleted then they are dangerous. LOL

I use WebRoot / MalwareBytes combo. No issues.

I only use window defender on my home computer, which is the same as using nothing...

At work we use ESET 5.x, but I will probably be switching to Kaspersky when it is time to renew, because ESET 6.x has too big of a resource footprint.

Excluded files/folders should be ignored by your a/v, so McAfee tech support is full of crap!

AVG.

Been using it since it started out free, early noughts. Costs ~ $35 now, not sure €=$ exchange rate. Excellent.

There is still a free version of AVG. A lot of my friends love it!

Just make sure you select the "Basic" free version, and not the "Free Trial" internet security, which expires in 30 days.

I don't recommend mcafee or norton, as they have both become bloatware.

Log into your ISP provider too. They often provide free "paid" versions of AV to customers.

I've found both in life and on computers abstinence is the best protection :)

Don't open attachments, visit dodgy sites etc.. and I'll skip the poor taste abstinence puns :)
