Hi all,

I need a decent piece of software, been blatantly hacked for 6 months or so.

Preferably a company not associated with eba*?

Any suggestions?

I'm in deep and have been hit hard, just wondering...

You can check out https://www.av-comparatives for some comparisons on security software performance that can help research which ones you want to try out.

If you want a free solution that can handle viruses, malware, ransomware -- even unknown -- you can check out AVG and Avast.

https://www.avast.com
https://www.avg.com

We do have a firewall solution in the premium products if you decide to upgrade, also.

Thank you I have always used malwarebytes, but I'll give BitDefender a try. It appears to be more, hackers, connections to my computer, and slowing my internet speeds until almost disabled... rather than virus/malware/software infections.

I am looking for the best firewall i guess.

This is more troubling than just needing a different AV solution.

What is telling you this?

I recommend using Avira Antivirus as I’ve been using it for about 2 years and never had complains. In addition, you can subscribe for Avira Phantom VPN in order to protect incoming/outgoing traffic or install any other VPN app (here you can read how to choose the best one https://www.bestvpnrating.com/vpnrating/who-are-safest-vpn-service-providers-world). What is more, you should keep all security software updated and download files from reliable sources.
