Recommended AV?

I think I see a few AVs offering that these days, which is a good thing.

I think standalone password managers like Keepass maybe better for some people who switch antivirus programs, or may have problems affording their paid antivirus subscription in the future.

[Skeithex]

Doesn't hurt to change if the current one isn't working, I've changed up a lot over the years for AV.

[froggyboy604]

Sometimes smaller AV companies get bought by bigger companies which may make it worst, or more expensive, so changing AV maybe needed.

[Skeithex]

A lot of that has happened already, you don't see many smaller companies around anymore.

[froggyboy604]

I think only ClamAV will probably be one of the few free antivirus which won't get bought because ClamAV is opensource and made for Linux.

[Skeithex]

If linux becomes more popular I could see it being bought or a copy made to compete.
