To those who used this, how does it compare to Bitdefender? From what I read, both of them are highly rated.

Beware that I bought up several in years past because you used to be able to use them sequentially, but ESET no longer allows this. My previous purchases are no longer supported software as they have changed the offerings and fee structures, and their licensing program no longer recognizes the old version, even if a new unused registration exists. I only mention this so you don't make the mistake I did and buy up several of these thinking you'd use them a year at time.

Have you tried contacting ESET support? I also had old and unused ESET "Smart Security" licenses that were not going through on the activation system. I just contacted ESET last week to activate one of them. They had to generate a new activation code for me.

Haven't used antivirus since Windows defender came out. Waste of money in my opinion.

Yep. You won't get a virus if you don't download anything or visit sketchy websites.

And harm won't come to you by anyone if you're absolutely a friend to the world.

Of course, if you don't run an anti-virus program that searches for viruses, you will never find any. Enjoy your blissfulness!

The free versions of Malwarebytes and Avast are enough.

Anti-virus software is still a thing?

There is enough weight to what they're saying though. I've used ESET for at least 20+ years (because initially it had the lowest possible load, and proved competent time and again), and still do on a couple of machines.

But at least for the last 4-5 years I don't think I've found a case of ESET catching something that Windows by itself didn't.

Again I still get it for a couple of machines that I'm more paranoid for, but the justification for buying it gets weaker and weaker.

My experience is of course anecdotal, and I'm sure smarter people have already pitted the systems against each other, but average Joe can probably skip a dedicated AV these days.
