I have Malwarebytes and Avast, both free. Unless anyone recommends better than that?

I have Malwarebytes, Superantispyware and I use windows defender as my anti virus I had AVG but got rid. I don't have the malware detectors running all the time just the odd scan, defender of course runs in the background.

Meant to add in my last post...........Do Routers still have very good firewalls too? My TalkTalk super router has and it says in the firewall settings, The Internet is an open network that connects computers around the world. Unfortunately, this means these computers are vulnerable to hacking attacks. Your Super Router includes features to protect your network against attacks, including a built-in firewall. We recommend that you don't change your Firewall protection level unless advised to do so. For devices that don't work correctly with the firewall in place (such as network gaming), we recommend you make use of the Port Forwarding functionality. |
