I have been asked to give a talk to a local pensioner's organisation on internet security. One of the points I will make is that you need a good anti-virus. I have used M$ Security Essentials and now Windows Defender on Win 10 for some years without any problems, largely as a result of recommendations here. In a recent magazine article in UK they were saying that Defender is not very good only picking up 75% of viruses in a test. They were advocating Kaspersky; the fact that they were offering it at a discount but were undoubtedly getting a cut may have influenced their decision. What anti-virus are you using? Do you still recommend Defender? Any thoughts or comments? I will be recommending one to the pensioners so will be going for one of the free ones.
Thanks
John
