Top choice for lightweight and unobtrusive antivirus solutions.
I consider myself cautious online, though not having any antivirus at all can be risky. My main concern with antivirus tools is they often bombard me with updates and virus alerts. I also don’t want them slowing my system down or running in the background unnecessarily. From a lightweight and unobtrusive perspective, which software would you suggest?

Guide to Antivirus & Malware: I’m using Avast! in Gaming/Silent mode for live protection, plus Malwarebytes for zero-day and manual checks. It’s important to enable alerts so you’re warned about threats and updates—without them, you might miss a virus from the file you open, and an outdated antivirus won’t help much.
