    We are talking about test or paid versions. I had both test versions and the computer alerts terribly silenced me, they were versions from a few years earlier I got rid of them and the computer walked better.


    I mean paid versions, i.e. not those that are free. @ radek3p

    I've been using the built-in firewall and defender for several months. No problems with sudden silting while playing, and my wife doesn't call to work that the anti-virus wants or blocks something. With avast every now and then there is the scandal that the viruses are on the server with updates. I will not say anything about Kasperski.

    As for Kasperski, it's generally better to steer clear of, the US has banned its use in government facilities, I also have negative memories for it, not only that it slowed down the computer, but as a few years ago I bought Kasperski's license for 3 computers every year, finally pissed me off because it started to let malware, like malware, so it had the right to let it pass, however, I installed free Avast for a short time and this one somehow dealt with this malware (I uninstalled Kasperski and although I had purchased a further license for the next year, I did not decide to update it), I will add that microsoft Antimalware has not been able to deal with this malware too. Now I only use the defender in Windows 10 and Microsoft Security Essentials in Windows 7, since then I have no problems with viruses or malware, just add that my computers are very vulnerable to this type of virus because I have computers for pupils and students, we know they come with their pendrivas, so it's easy to get infected.

    I am currently using Avast Internet Security + Malwarebytes Premium and it is fine so there is probably no point in changing it to Kasperski.

    @ Kraniec_Internetów
    That's right, but not for Malwarebytes. He does not bite with other anti-viruses because even the company itself writes that it is not strictly anti-virus and recommend using it additionally with anti-virus.
    In the premium version, it blocks threats in real time (not only after "catching" them).

    I have never used it as an antivirus. Always as something that will clean my computer and be uninstalled. I would have to try and check how it works. I am also interested in the effect of combining it with Defender, but I don't even have a way to compare them ...


    I highly recommend this Premium version. You will certainly be very pleased.
