What other antivirus/protection software do you run alongside Avast?

I typically use Avast Premier combined with Malwarebytes Free. :smiley:

The short answer you shouldn’t need any other ‘antivirus’ in fact we discourage the use of multiple AVs at they can conflict unless that secondary AV is on-demand only.

Anti Malware is generally OK, and Malwarebytes Free is usually fine, but you may need to exclude their folders.

I used to use MBAM Pro, I even have a lifetime license, but from MBAM version 3 (which was seriously bloated) I stopped using it completely.

Sorry, i meant to say antimalware there.

No problem.

The word Malware covers evrything. All virus are malware but all malware is not virus :wink:

Malware = malicious software = anything that can harm your computer, Virus / Trojan / worm / ransomware / rotkits …

Hi Armel_08,

I use CCleaner and adw. cleaner on demand + cookienator every week together with Voodooshield constantly.

In-browser protection extensions are:
VT4Browsers, & Recx security analyzer & uMatrix & uOrigin & Decentraleyes & Web Developer & Tracker SSL & Retire.JS & Shodan.
Giving me a solid fingerprint unless I browse with Chameleon.

Searching with DuckDuckGo, QWant and X Intelligence. I am a user of Malzilla browser for analyses.

Google only when we cannot avoid it and because of the vast resources, while fond of Google Safebrowsing,
a perfect initiative like VirusTotal.
