CRON 07/27/23 7:41:33 PM #8:	Windows Defender by default is good enough. If you're that concerned, download the free version of Malwarebytes and run a scan every once in a while. It's really difficult to get viruses these days unless you carelessly download random stuff from sites riddled with ads and pop-ups. --- Thanks for reading! <cite>CRON posted [p:975104795] in Any low co...

Lvaneede 07/27/23 7:45:02 PM #12:	Youre only going to get a virus if youre downloading dodgy stuff or going to bad websites. Windows defender is perfectly fine for almost everyone. I used to be a computer technician.
