Your free Norton protection is likely to stop any good free antivirus software from working.
Your free Norton protection is likely to stop any good free antivirus software from working.
I recall Linus mentioning an antivirus he used, but I don’t have the details. Are you looking for a user-friendly option that’s trusted by many users?
Malwarebytes and Windows Defender are sufficient, but Norton isn’t reliable. You might have viruses on your system that these tools missed. Avast works but I discontinued it due to excessive false alarms and the hassle of ignoring them. It performed poorly in half the cases regardless of exclusions. Consider using Web of Trust to verify links before clicking—this helps identify safe or risky websites.
Windows Defender plus a smart mind create the best antivirus of all.

Brain plus MB equals perfection. MB comes into play when your brain farts or someone uses your computer. If others often access your PC, pair Avast! with MB for better protection. Use Avast for continuous scanning and MB for occasional checks. MB is essentially MalwareBytes if you're not familiar.
Malwarebytes stands out among options, and pairing it with a brain works well.
