which is best Anti Virus of these?

[Verve]

Windows is awful and every AV used has been pointless.

Buy a Mac and forget about buying another laptop for 5yrs (by then one would be on a 3rd or 4th windows based laptop).

I am using Windows 10 original and I am very satisfied.

People assume that "pirated/unlocked" copies are stable like original copies - they are not.

Anti-piracy measures are becoming increasingly sophisticated in latest software and attempts to "unlock" them leads to their instability.

Maybe 10 is stable. I stopped after 7. Always had genuine software, but nah. I can count on hand the number of times the 2010 mbp crashed/froze in last 7 years.

I use Panda. Similarly lightweight to avast, which I've also previously used, so it's a matter of preference really. I'm satisfied with it.



Kaspersky recently decided to turn over its source code to US law enforcement, not sure I'd want to be using their anti-virus now.

Yes, generally preference; avast just fits the bill - on my linux boxes; no need to put anything there - just a small bramble of raspberry pi 3. Norton is too bloated and very large footprint; similar with avg. I prefer lightweight computing resources.

This is what I did to my Dell laptop, in order to convert a shadi ka godha into a race ka godha:

I changed my i5 processor to i7
Changed my HDD to SSD
Window 7 to Windows 10 pro 64 bit.
Upgraded the RAM from 4 to 6.

I don't employ any AV which reduces my speed, Windows defender does a equally good job.
I have no virus issues at all.

Now my laptop is on cloud nine.

AVG anti virus is free and works great.

Yes you can.
I did it (in fact a shop owner who did it was a Pakistani in a mall)
There is a socket, just replace the processor and let it sit there.
No soldering required.

I know that but as per my best knowledge motherboard of laptop's doesn't support new processors, you are for sure lucky one.

Its doable because I did it.
Only catch is that you have to have the same generation processor. Otherwise the socket wont accept.

There is no luck factor here.
Its technical.
