Protection software and security system
Bitdefender stands out as a top choice for its premium features.
These are the options I suggest using with Windows. I’ve found they work well without any problems. Recommended products include:
- Microsoft Security Essentials
- MalwareBytes
Other strong choices are:
• AVG
• Avast
• BitDefender
• Kaspersky
Avoid these two if possible:
• Norton
• McAffee
The free edition seems to work well. I've experienced consistent success. Regarding the scanning feature, MalwareBytes includes a Scheduler—daily, weekly, or monthly options. It can handle its tasks independently. I recommend using MSE and leaving MalwareBytes alone for optimal results.
Windows 7 includes Microsoft Security Essentials that identified an issue my Kasperky missed, causing me to doubt him. Windows 8 should come with Bitdefender, I think.
