Windows Defender is free and a 1st rate antivirus tool.

Windows Defender is not good enough. AV-Comparatives ranked it 3rd to last in the latest Real-World Protection Test for Feb - May 2024. Windows Defender also does not offer all the features that better AV software providers offer. I work in IT. I know the best form of protection is not clicking on random links, etc. Honestly though, we all browse the Internet. Sometimes legitimate websites become infected or malware gets loaded into their Javascript. Plain old Windows Defender (not Windows Defender for Endpoints, which is paid) does not offer web protection like a lot of AV protection software does. Sure, your browser is also scanning and blocking dangerous websites, but why not have AV software checking as well since browsers miss blocking A LOT of crap?

I use Sophos Home to protect all my family's computers. It does a MUCH better job than Windows Defender ever will. I was visiting Care.org (a legitimate website) back on September 2nd. It looks like some of their Javascript code got infected or something, and good old Sophos BLOCKED the malware. See here: https://imgur.com/nXOhqXq

I dare you to visit a legit website like care.org (they fixed the issue now) and see if your precious Windows Defender or browser will block the malware https://i.slickdeals.net/images/smilies/emot-LMAO.gif

Also, if Windows Defender is "good enough," ask yourself, why do virtually zero organizations or government agencies use it?

People don't like hearing they've been fooled using Windows Defender.

not sure why, i just tested it out again. 18 seconds to open up from toolbar. 20 seconds to open up the settings when i click on it. another 20 seconds to close the settings window.
all my other software opens up within seconds. only norton takes an absurd about of time. happens with all the systems i have it installed on.
i'll probably switch back to avast or avg in the future.. or maybe eset.

You running the OS on a hard drive instead of an SSD? Or maybe you are low on available memory and it is going out to the pagefile? Norton is a memory pig. Only things I could think of which would cause it to be that slow.

Zero organizations or government agencies use basic Windows Defender because they use Defender E5 instead. Defender is good enough for everyone without having to pay anything. Don't just rely on a single tester's results, either: https://www.av-test.org/en/antivi...18-241213/

nvme ssd with ~400gb free
32gb of ram.
I feel like the program is too sluggish and constantly advertises.

I use kaspersky total and bought it several times on amazon. However, it seems there is no more kaspersky total. So is this pretty good compared to kaspersky total?

It's fine to wait until then to activate. I've sat on keys for years.

Checked the codes and it appears the deal has ended. You can set up deal alerts to be notified of the next one. Newegg offers deals on antivirus programs often so you probably won't have to wait too long.

Ended up with an extra 1 year Nod32 Anti-virus, looking to trade for a Nord VPN from one of the other deals. DM me.
