Best Anti-Virus/Adware/Spyware software?

[gwoodtamu]

Hello. Currently I am using Windows Defender and I am looking for better options at protection. I was hoping to get some help as to what are considered to be the best available software for protection atm. I would prefer free but if paid is considered above and beyond the best I would consider it. This is for a Windows 10 home PC. TY.

For me... KASPERSKY ! Buy it and forget about you problems
p.s. If this computer is not connected to internet the windows defender will handle the problems good enough

bitdefender, rated no.1
kaspersky rated no.2
avira rated no.3

any of the above will do you rite.
you may want to add malwarebytes (free) as it will pick up stuff anti viruses miss.

I am very fond of Bitdefender and Avira. BullGuard is also one I like as well.

I have never tried Kaspersky, but I have heard of it being good.

bullguard has a nice interface. clean and simple but its terrible for catchrate...

Bitdefender Total Security is best. Install it and enable Auto-Pilot Mode and leave it to him. It also has slowest impact to performance.
