Which AntiVirus to use to not have false positives/problems with SRO Private Servers

[Tetsu]

Hi,
i wanted to ask which AntiVirus program do you recommend to use, to not have any problems with false poisitives or other problems.

I used Bitdefender for a long time, but recently it always shows me some kind of false positive, but their website to report and fix false positives is not working anymore (errors when I send it). Also the option to add it as an exception doesnt work properly as well...

So I terminated my abonnement and are looking for a decent alternative which doesnt make trouble with Silkroad Online private servers.

Does anyone have a recommendation?

I use Avast and have not had any false virus reports, while Avast itself is free for basic protection.

Windows Defender and a Brain is more than enough.

not if you play private servers (wouldnt be the first time they are used for malware) and also use alternatives sources to stream vod

You are better off using nothing at all instead of using Avast.

I use Kaspersky Free version and I find it good enough to stop any potential malware. Windows Defender does pretty much nothing to stop them.

You're probably not experienced the JEEFO virus yet. Such virus is frequently found at SRO private servers where owners don't even know they have it until their users starts experiencing problems.

Avast is malware itself. I know it, i used to work for them.

I didn't mean install Avast, but find a good antivirus instead just Windows Defender.

I just recommended NOD32 for years.
But recently Kaspersky launched a free version and to me, it seems good enough.

Yeah, I know it can be an extensive topic if we go to the global espionage warfare, goverments using such tools or companies to do shady stuffs. I just saw Kaspersky is banned on US, it is a Russian product but I'll take such risk at the moment.
