Antivirus

Name yours, and why you think it's the master race!

For me, I don't use any "active-scanning" antivirus, I just use Malwarebytes and scan every two days. Active-scanning Antivirus programs normally pick up all of the programs I download off of the internet as viruses, when 99% of them are false-positives. On my school laptop I run Norton with everything turned on, and it picks up literally every virus ever, which is cool.

Microsoft Security Essentials - best for free
Peerblock - mostly good for anti-anti-P2P, but it includes known virus distributing IPs to block
Malwarebytes - paid version's server blocker is beautiful

OS X.
That is all.

I just realized how many spammy posts Unintelligible makes, lol.

How does he not get warned 8ever?

Also, @Charles: Peer Block is good, used to have that like two years ago, completely forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me, gonna go download it again.

Also, what's the Server Blocking feature in the paid malwarebytes?

No viruses yet. 5 years and counting.

I use a rotation depending on what computer I'm on.
Do love Malwarebytes though. Also I've had good experiences with the paid version of Kaspersky

Avast.

I know it's the farthest thing besides Norton from being a "master race" virus cleaner, but it's imperfect and does what I need it to do and I love it <3

AVG Trial. It's pretty cash.

Malware bytes and Peerblock are what I use.
Though if I actually payed for one I'd like to try out kaspersky.

How are you a mod and not know that he has?

Egg on face, bro.

Blocks entire servers that are know to host malicious content, instead of just the associated domain. Essentially an IP blocker. Works really well. Stops viruses before you get them instead of having to go back and remove them.
