[etneroll]

why? what's so good for not having a anti virus in your pc? isn't it a necessity as far as pc safety is concerned?

In my experience lang sa HOME computing,
Some Antivirus software is a resource hog.
Some Antivirus software complicates things, that should've been very simple.
In short some Antivirus software are inefficient.

Para din namang sasakyan ang PC, the most efficient safety mechanism is the user.

Pde naman ma-prevent ang viruses and other malicious software kung filtered mga pumapasok sa PC e. So the most efficient filter is the user mismo .

Ewan ko na lang sa ibang computing environments.

para sa akin dapat meron kang anti-virus lalo na kong lagi kang gumagamit ng flash drive or remomable memory ambilis kumalat ng virus lalo na ang mga auto run virus marami namang mga free version na anti-virus at dapat meron ding firewall

+1. once i edited a document in my flash drive using a PC not mine and when i tried to access it using my laptop, the AV started screaming. 300+ docs infected in just over 30 minutes of editing.

if you're wary of some AV being resource hogs viruses, adware and spyware can slow your system to a crawl.

So long as you don't surf pr0n sites or use p2p to download and then visit here. This site has a high (relatively speaking) incidence of spyware, at least compared to other forums when I make my rounds.

It seems ok lately. But, I'm still not letting my guard down. The Mac Mini caught something when I used Safari here. It may also have been from my daughter using my Mini. Either way, I stopped using the Mini for surfing here.

Whenever I surf here, everything in the arsenal's fully loaded and updated.

The last time a trojan/worm/virus got through to my pc was back when I still used Windows 98SE around late 1999. The last time a virus did massive damage to my computer was way back when I was still using a Commodore Amiga A500, say 1990. And yes, I used to bootleg back then when I was still young, stupid, and relatively poor.
