I Would like to point out some important things regarding anti virus software.

 

Most 'premium' softwares check everything you download by extracting them and scanning the code for pre-defined definations.

People who would like to do nasty things to your PC are always 1 step ahead of the defination libraries anyways.

 

This also causes longer load times. For example everytime you play a game, load a map, models etc. the software checks them for malicious content inside of those files.

 

The best anti-virus out there is thinking twice before doing something. Defender and MBAM is the way to go for most people however.

Stay a safe distance from AVG, Norton, McAfee etc. bullshit. thanks.

 

EDIT. Also I think it's unethical for the companies mentioned above make their users think they are safe from everything if they use mentioned software.

 

thank you mate.

so malewarebytes.com and windows defender won't give me longer loading times by opening a map ect ect. `?

shall i use both or either malewarebytes or windows defender?

In my knowledge they wont. I am using both my self, no issues at all.

Also, I can't recall which, but some Anti-Virus softwares (the premium ones) had issues with working side-by-side with others, Defender has no such issue with MBAM.
