seeing a lot of people with false positives and whats most likely their third party AV eating DLLs and other stuff
you really, really dont need anything besides the default antivirus on windows.
really.
if you use a mac, im sorry i dont know what to tell you, you deserve it for using apple
if you use linux, you already enjoy the torture of figuring it out yourself
but seriously;
windows defender/windows security/whatever its called on 11 will catch everything of actual concern
dont download random .EXEs (or .bats (batch files)) or from websites youve never been on before
use an adblock to keep malicious ads away
install malwarebytes if you think something slipped in through the cracks, then uninstall once done.
this has been a linus meth tip
