Having an installed antivirus on a computer is a good solution, but if the user does not know the basics of security on the Internet, then the antivirus may not be a panacea.

If you can want use any antivirus you can try full package or full version with 'Internet security facilities' antivirus,So I thing solved maximum security problem, but it is depend your antivirus company.

Yeah, good advice about security but I don't know how your topic belongs to Meta section. Meta is mainly about the forum, better move it to a more appropriate place like Service discussion or Beginners and Help

You should move your topic to the "off-topic" section. This doesn't belong to Meta. And to be honest, I do not think belongs to this forum. Is just a link to another website. If you really want to write about the qualities in using an anti-virus, just write.

I’ve always been careful on the internet. Don’t use a PC/Laptop that you use for crypto to do general browsing. It really is that simple.
Don’t use this forum, don’t download movies, torrents, open emails with a PC/Laptop that you use for crypto.

Just a note of caution here - Two anti-virus programmes running in the same computer can be worse than one, and can leave you partly unprotected. If they both fight for control of the interrupt handler for example, you could end up with the interrupts being sent to the wrong handler routines.

To understand if you need an antivirus, first you need to understand how it works. an antivirus has a list of signatures and is basically based on that to understand what happens. with new viruses is not effective.. And with mac os and linux you dont need it

Being responsible user is also a good protection together by having an anti virus.
Be vigilant of what the links you visit and download.

just install Linux, it should give you basic protection from virus and stuff like that. on top of that, i think having firewall is great too. as long as user can use it, firewall is enough to protect them from malicious attack.

You can read many benefits By using an antivirus, click the image and read more. As we know viruses were invented by antivirus companies to make money. But, now the viruses are used by hackers to steal the money, and antiviruses are so weak about it. Do not trust antiviruses compeletely, pay attention to your own dangerlessness.

Anti-virus software will not help you in the case of random browsing "clicking on any link" because scams are renewed faster than the antivirus software database. So it 's better to avoid downloading any program and clicking on random links. Don’t use this forum, don’t download movies, torrents, open emails with a PC/Laptop that you use for crypto.
Or modify the HOST file on your computer to prevent visiting any site other than specific sites you trust.

What I dislike the most about antivirus is that the regular Joe always thinks he is 100% safe and vaccinated against malware because he's using one. But all most of them do is check for known virus signatures. And most of the time that's not enough; and even if it is, it's only to help you against trojans and etc. If you download a fake wallet, for example, the fake Electrum wallet propagated through the fake update messages, an antivirus will not detect it, simply because it can't know what is malicious or not. I myself never use any antivirus.

If you can want use any antivirus you can try full package or full version with 'Internet security facilities' antivirus,So I thing solved maximum security problem, but it is depend your antivirus company. Even that wouldn't work, every time a anti-virus would detect something the user still has the authority to give permissions. For example a website is blocked by your anti-virus users could still give exceptions to still continue visit the website and maybe download a malicious software. At the end users are still at fault as they risk themselves on allowing exceptions. Still users need to have proper internet knowledge when it comes to scams, phishing, and malicious softwares as even anti-virus does not guarantee your computer's protection from your own wrongdoing.

What on in a case a system has a default antivirus and you install a new antivirus because you are jot satisfied with the service you get from the former would it also affect the system?

See here for independent evaluations of many commonly used anti-virus programs: https://www.av-test.org/en/antivirus/home-windows/Even Windows Defender isn't bad these days provide you aren't an idiot. The best anti-virus is common sense. Don't visit any suspicious links, and don't download anything without verifying/scanning it first. There are plenty of sites which will scan an online file before you download it. Don't give away your email to anyone and everyone to flood with malicious attachments and links, and definitely don't go downloading random altcoin/token wallets.

AVs also have plenty of false positives with intentionally installed programs that are legitimate like various software altcoin miners like BFGminer and such (though these are detected as malware as coin miners are sometimes embedded as malware into certain programs). I personally do not use antivirus on my main computer, though I also don't download any ol' link I see on the internet.
As for keeping your account safe, do not access your account on an untrusted or unsecured computer or network. There's a number of people on this forum that have multiple accounts for posting and viewing the forums on unsecured computers. Nothing wrong with that at all.

LoL are you using 2GB RAM on your PC/Laptop? If so you should know that now the maximum programme installed or using the requirement of 4GB RAM minimum. If you want to use windows latest version so need minimum 4GB RAM otherwise your PC/laptop will not work properly.
