Afternoon all Can anybody recommend a decent Anti Virus i know this must have been asked god knows how many times but after anti virus for the PC-laptop and tablet don't mind paying. To be truthful we don't have any and me and the Mrs felt bit frisky last night and Watched porn online without any online protection and now we might of ended up with our pants down more then once LOLOL
The two top-scoring Anti-Virus vendors are typically Trend Micro and Kaspersky. Both score excellently and consistently. I haven't used Trend's but I can confirm that Kaspersky's software runs lightly and is very intuitive to use. Additionally they do original research - it was Kaspersky Labs that was primarily responsible for both exposing The Equation Group (i.e. NSA) and tracing Stuxnet. If you can catch the NSA and the Israeli government, you're very good. Plus, from a logical point of view, you have less to worry about with Russian security software than American security software because the Russians don't give a damn what you do but your own country's government does. There are almost certainly backdoors that Five Eyes nations have access to in US-based anti-virus. That may or may not be a concern for you, but I still go with Kaspersky because frankly, it's rock solid and very comprehensive. Reasonable price and comes with a multi-machine licence, as well.
You could just use Windows Defender (decent) and occasional scans with Malwarebytes and save yourself some money. But if you're engaging in behaviour you know to be risky ('cause you're frisky), then I personally would pay for something.
