Hi Sifus,

I noticed that Windows 10 has Windows Defender built into it. Do we need to install Antivirus or Internet Security Suites?

depend.
if u got common sense and stay away from those website, and dun simply download and install programs from suspicious source, then no nid.

if u super retarded, visit porn site everyday, etc, then yes.

edit: if you super paranoid, then you should get one too.

for maximum protection it's recommended to install own antivirus.

Actually I only use internet for fb, lowyat, torrent and watch online movies. PC is used mostly for gaming only.


Noted. I assumed Windows Defender would be good but like you've said it is better to have an antivirus. Any recommendation?

I use china free 1 lol bad reputation 1, not recommended

if want branded and trusted i recommend something like kaspersky which is quite famous, other i dunno lel.. not really a sifu in this antivirus field.

Windows Defender + Malwarebyte (FREE)

should do the trick run malwarebyte once a week

It depends on you how to surf internet and download something, especially torrent, may include some malware or PUP programs.

You can use google and search windows 10 needs AV or not. Most of people will say yes.

Free Antivirus you can search on google.
Paid Antivirus you can search on google.

You can try each AV and choose which one is better for you.
Normally, people will say paid version is better because you paid for it then you will get technical support from vendors when you need expertise IT to help.


I cann't comment which one is good, pros and cons.

But you must know you also need firewall, either from windows firewall or third party firewall.

You want to know what is firewall, you can search on google also.
Simple example, firewall is like your house gate or house door.
Open and close your door when you need go out or come in.

Allow outgoing and incoming internet.
AV+ firewall = internet security

AV= Police come in your house and catch a thief because you allow him come in.
(em...who come in, police or thief? Both. Police you invited because you buy a license, thief you allowed because you opened a door let him in. Ha Ha Ha !)
