    I’ve used many, but keep going back to AVG and Trendmicro… and Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware.

    It’s better to stop thinking “antivirus” programs will protect you.

    Instead you should:

    1. Set up and use almost exclusively a limited user account.

    2. Google the phrase “social engineering” and read the first five results.

    3. Install Windows updates automatically.
