What's the best free general purpose security software?
I used to just use AVG and Malwarebytes, but AVG is a nightmare of pop ups and scare tactics to get you to upgrade now. Is there anything else I should consider?
ClamAV is good. No bloat and is a very simple program that Just Works. Also it’s compatible with Linux which is great since Linux is my daily driver. I do a scan every 3 months just to have some good security posture, although some classes of malware can evade AV, so it’s no silver bullet.
