>Do you even need one?
If stupid, yes
>if not stupid
Nothing

This. Antivirus software exists to protect idiots from themselves.

This isn't the 1990's anymore,malware is far more advanced.Common sense might save you from Pajeet,but there are other, far more intelligent actors out there these days.

This

Common sense, though I guess Windows Defender is constantly running in my background and updates daily but it's never found anything.

Antivirus does not magically enhance your security. Best you can hope for is it detects suspicious behaviour which you will then ignore as a false positive.

run everything in an obvious virtual machine, 99% malware doesn't execute in vm due them thinking it's a re honeypot

>Windows Defender
>never found anything.
It only scans for windows cracks n' hax

same as what the malicious software removal tool does.

>Windows Defender
>constantly running in my background and updates daily but it's never found anything
That's because it's heuristics engine is shit
>common sense
This is true but I'd recommend at least MBAM in tandem with common sense. Kaspersky makes a good solution as well
>inb4 russian botnet
Their detection rates are in the top 3

Yeah, probably. It doesn't really matter to me anyway. Never had a problem with viruses or anything.

>Do you even need one?
Nah,man.Anti-virus, firewalls, passwords, all that shit is for cucks. I rely on the honor system. I keep a file on my computer with my paypal and bitcoin info on it, so if anyone accesses my files,they can donate however much they want to my patreon.

While this is true, antivirus will not save you from stuff like you described. Maybe a firewall, but not antivirus.

>which you will then ignore as a false positive.
I don't.I research anything that is found immediately after I quarantine it.My Dad taught me that when I was just a kid. I mean, you preach common sense,right? Put the suspects in quarantine and run the files through virustotal,if it's still unclear,remove it.I'm not going to take the word of some clown from the Piratebay who says "Relax, it's a false positive.", because this statement get's thrown around so much, it's a perfect opportunity to actually pull shady shit.

You're a year behind, better update your definitions.

It doesn't save you in as much as it allows you to remove things.Obviously, Anti virus vendors are not psychic, so they're always behind the curve in terms of awareness, but Pajeets and scriptkiddies aren't usually too ahead of things either.My point is, what does it hurt?

gentoo GNU/Linux

Yeah there's no AV against NSA and FBI malware sadly

Kaspersky

Why do you think the US intelligence agencies were so quick to demonize them?

If you're one of those retards clicking every link and ad that they can find, you're gonna need one

otherwise you don't.

>inb4 but I won an iPhone
no you didn't

av-test pulls samples from virustotal lol that's like saying "wow you sure can scrape VT with your private API key thanks for paying 2 orgs to ace this test"

I use ClamAV and put NoScript on my browser. While I'm not a total retard and don't go onto sketchy ass sites, I follow the mentality of 'better safe than sorry'. If you honestly don't have an anti malware, you're a fucking moron. ClamAV is a free, open source Anti malware and saying you don't want an anti malware because 'Durr I'm not a retard' or 'Durr nobody makes malware for Linux' just shows that you view it too one-dimensionally. Get an anti malware, it's a good idea to have one and a bad idea to not have one.

>paying for malwarebytes
Just use the keygen for a license that never expires.

Have you fully configured you're NS ?

Linux with his firewall.

Symantec Endpoint Protection.
Just werks

I assume this is a familiar sight to you.

Antiviruses are snake oil, they don't really provide proactive protection.
They're designed for people who think enterprise is a good buzzword and not a stealth insult.

You want actual protection tools, you're looking for stuff of a similar nature to Microsoft's Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit, which aside from being a useful tool to manage various security settings on wangblows, also has a bunch of what I think are kernel level attack mitigations.
And also telemetry because you're the product, and fuck you.

Oh, btw, Linux users need not opine here in this thread.

Immunet or Clam Win.

We can if we use SElinux

How's it feel to not be in control of your mandatory access?
