Back when Windows had all its neat little security problems to exploit.
even after this incident
Yeah, AV is a waste of resources.
also the unecessary information gathering pisses me of
"huh you're praying gaem? let me block the anti-cheat and check various files of the game directory to slow down your loading speeds"
Gotta know e v e r y t h i n g about you in order to ~~sell the info to advertising companies~~ provide the highest quality service.
the only anti virus which helped me in some cases was spybot
it's also the only one which kindly asks about donations
and doesn't force popup windows against you
Microsoft's got its own av that doesn't harass you, fyi.
you mean defender?
Uh, are you on Win 10?
yes
Yeah, then Defender.
It used to be MSE but it got built into 10.
That's all you need.
well in the past when i deleted some minor malicious services, spybot helped me more than defender
Unless you know you're infected in which case you download HerdProtect.
microsoft security essentials
and then remove it when you're done.
herdprotect?
Mhm
gonna look that up
It's this nifty thing that scans with EVERY anti-malware engine
and I believe it removes? I've not used it in a while.
oh it's an all in one scanner
seems interesting
but it could also delete stuff you don't want it to..
Potentially. That's a risk you run with any AV.
are you listening to this techt support scam video?
it's hilarious in my opinion
I'm not. I've seen my fair share of those kinds of things though.
me too, but this is seriously funny
because james just continues to do this shit
I think one time, I picked up the phone while pretty drunk. They asked if they could speak to the home owner and I think I kept telling them I was "just visiting".
It was stupid.
xDDD
oh man
i'd love to have some prank calls
i'm drunk enough to fuck with peoples minds
