Hi, tried a year without and didn't experience any issues so far.
Yesterday, I just started out with an attempt to write my own, using one and only one hopefully small driver and not about 6 to 7 bloated ones like Kaspersky..
Actually, it is rather going to be an HIDS, since I don't care when it comes to signatures or filebased detection so I won't have a scanning engine.
Best Regards

That's great, I'll be waiting for it.
Im not using any AV because those things are more bloated than windows itself, had no problems since I uninstalled Avira 4~ years ago and my system has never been so fastâ„¢.

HIPS are not AV's. Who ever use them - only totally dumb people who like 5 minutes boot lags and Allow/Remember/DoNotAsk marathons?

There is gaming/silent mode and then there is SSD in raid0 you know :roll: ? If HIPS users are dumb then I don't want to know what AV users are... :lol: You really expect me (others) to use Windows backdoored sh1t without some agressive anoying filters? (ZDI posts anyone?)

I have to, MSDNAA and its not up to me, Im happy that I talked people I work for not to use Java haha, but I started to love new Visual Studio so even at home I don't use linux, only for clang stuff.
PS We are all using backdoored Windows (sadlly), just check new ZDI post about "patched" 0day, and I hope Outpost isn't backdoored, but developer was caught red handed before hmmm, now you got me thinking.

You should pay less attention to mass media idiots. Bugged? Yes. Backdoored? No.

Avast! because it is the least bad of the 3+1 big free AVs. Unfortunately even it is not free of bloat and various kinds of social media garbage anymore.
