So, Avast and AVG had an update that interfered with the pvr software i use. So I was told to uninstall it, Any good free lightweight antiviruses? Free, not trial based.
I'm careful what i download so i dont need something super protective, just something simple. thanks

I'm not sure if Kaspersky has a free version but I'm using that and it seems to be simple and nice

I also have a PVR so I know what you mean

It sucks, but IDC. I love my pvr.
I bought the elgato HD60 and sent it back the next day, had so many problems with it lol

I'm using Windows Defender Microsoft Anti-Virus software and its really great software. In windows 10 you can get it by default otherwise you can download it from Microsoft Websites [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and its free antivirus software. Still I'm using this software working perfectly never give me any issue. For me it is the great free antivirus software.

Windows defender is alll you need aslong as you keep it updated another great anti virus is called avira however I don't know if they now charge for this as I haven't used it for years.

Only thing I have on my pc is malwarebytes. I don't download dodgy shit so I don't need to worry too much.

Antivirus is all personal preference imo.

I used to not have an antivirus for the longest time, however I've recently started downloading from some skeptical sites so I'm currently using Bit Defender, with Malwarebytes on the side.

I use Peerblock, BitDefender and Malwarebytes premium

But yea antivirus programs are pretty much personal preference they all have the same features so nothing's special
