I use Bitdefender these days. Properly good bit of software, but a bit pricey compared to the others.

At work for our VoIP core, we use Sophos UTM, and deploy RED's around the customer sites for a secure tunnel.

Some other programs that get installed on every computer I use......

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
CCleaner
Putty
CPU-Z
HWMonitor
ArcticVPN

Heard bitdefender was good, ill have a look at that, seen a couple of shouts now for CCleaner too so Ill add it to my list

Putty etc Ill only put on if the need arises, I set up my own VPN on a VPS a while ago so it was handy then but the cheapo server I was on has bit the dust now and I think I need a better VPN solution, they all seem to have pros and cons, none of them perfect, Im thinking of using a second router, putting wrt-dd on it and setting the VPN up directly on that router

What???

Oh....yes. @Bryan. I was totally talking about @Bryan. Definitely. Not an actual big-headed steroid freak who sold his soul and is now a card-carrying Apple fan-boy. He probably wears crocs now as well. If he was real, of course.

I'm actually seriously thinking of not using a free antivirus, it seems keeping your system patched up to date is more important these days (along with using your brain of course) - I was just going to use malwarebytes and something like the ublock origin plug in on chrome

f.lux is good, I plan on installing that

I usually use Ninite as well when I first set up to easily install a few bits a bobs

Tbh, I cant be bothered doing rebuild yet but want to get rid of any pre-installed bloatware, I was looking at something like Decrapifier

Kodi Im already covered on through a fire tv box into all the tellys in the house

Memu sounds interesting, Ill have a look at that as well as setting up a VM

Best virus protector BIT Defender

[QUOTE="Baines' left foot, post: 5544303, member: 8777"]F.lux. Great for using your laptop before bed.

I've got a Mac though so I don't need all this antivirus stuff @chicoazul[/QUOTE]
Honestly think this works, can barely keep my eyes open, even on key scenes in the porn I'm watching, but yeah great app for those who struggle to switch off
