I have used Kaspersky and it’s EXTREMELY heavy. It’s loaded with a bunch of unnecessary features which makes my laptop struggle to run it. And after hearing your experience with AVG, i think that definitely a software to avoid. I will give Bit defender a try.

Honestly this whole “be careful” approach isn’t very effective in 2019... otherwise you won’t be installing anything on your pc, which defeats the purpose. Not to mention that pcs can easily get infected with virus just sitting idle without any action from the user.

And I don’t use my laptop for gaming nor am I planning to do so. If it can’t run an antivirus software, there’s no way in hell can it run any decent games honestly.

Thank you for the suggestion, along with trying bit defender as suggested on a previous response, I will also give malwarebytes a try. I honestly don’t mind not having real time protection. It could even be an advantage as the antivirus won’t keep on constantly hogging resources with its real time protection.

what i mean is to know which is look like virueses and not . antivirus is not useless and you still need it for second protection in case that you fail to determine the file before launching it . but still make sure to scan it first before executing it to make sure it is 100% safe
