I don't think neither Win 10 nor 11 would run on what would be now, an antique!

Antivirus Programs are very stupid and basically Scam. Turn them off for playing.

Here is an interessting critic from a Software Developer:

And if you're gonna use one make sure you use one from the modern age, Norton hasn't performed well for a long time by any metric. Abysmal zero day threat detection and a resource pig. This has been true for over a decade.

aside from recent a Windows ISO/or up-to-date Windows and an up-to-date router, your best line of defence is a decent browser.

Regardless of whether you have a Router and your Windows being up-to-date, it's still not going to stop all the malicious crap you can get from certain websites, or downloads...
So a decent browser, properly setup, can save you from the majority of problems, however the biggest flaw in the system is you, and it's upto you to know what you're doing... all the protection in the world ain't going to save you if you are completely clueless.

Never too late to switch to Linux :D. Manor Lords runs really well. Malware does not.

I can't comprehend why people complain Norton is heavy on the system. I tested it myself. And don't notice any slowing down... in games it may 1fps....
There are video's were Bitdefender for ewample is more heavy.
In my experience Norton runs good. The full MWB for example consumes alot more for example.

Anyway note i don't use the Norton VPN, password manger, extra utilities "to have a fast pc", or driver boosters, etc...

Basically commen sense on the internet is the best defense, Norton Ant-virus is my last defense. and it does this fine.
My only problem with Norton these days is the advertisement & pricing shenanigans...
But the anti-virus itself is good.

yeah but most games don't work on Linux. But the reason Linux is safe is beccaus its small. If everybody jumps to linux so are the scammers... i guess?

It's a matter of relative scale. It might not actually bog down most modern systems to the point the user notices it, but compared to the ones that are good these days, it's a pig.

More to the point, on top of that it underperforms as an AV.

There are video's were Bitdefender for ewample is more heavy.

That's the first I'm hearing that, interesting if true - how does Norton compare for zero-day threat detection and anti-ransomware? Last I checked, admittedly a couple of years ago, Bitdefender wins those every year since 2015 or something.

The full MWB isn't really serious either, you're dating yourself a lot with your examples. The industry has moved on. MWB is good for cleaning an already infected system, its real time is quite bad.

Norton is a relic. Might as well tell people you use Netscape Navigator or Lotus SmartSuite.

There are inherent security advantages to Linux that make this untrue but I don't want to make this a Linux thread. Most games run flawlessly on Linux now anyway, thanks to the Proton compatibility layer, developed by Valve.

Norton is always rubbish. Get kaspersky or bitdefender.

Bitdefender has literally one of the worst impacts on application launch times... Terrible advice to be honest.

The once you want to avoid are bitdefencer, mcaffee and trendmicro, gdata, totalav and microsofts av.
