No antivirus needed!

I have been dealing with a computer for more than 8 years. With the Internet for 4 years. During all this time, I had an antivirus only for the first year. The rest of the time I do without this useless "gadget". Once every six months I reinstall Windows, and since my hard drive is broken, I don't have to reinstall everything, well, except for a few programs. So throw all antiviruses into the trash and don't bother with these problems.

appeared - we run it through AVZ, profit.
Do you know how easy it is for her to watch the entire autorun (just watch, not scan for viruses with this utility for 200-300 thousand detections)?
And can you easily figure out how to find rootkits (kernel-level rootkits are not detected on x64, the search only gives problems to the antivirus)?

Let it be known to you, AVZ detects what it can detect.

It's more complicated with rootkits. Read articles about rootkits. A rootkit, for example, can restore interceptions at any time. And the anti-rootkit will not detect anything. And if it doesn't, the rootkit will hide everything it needs to hide. And the anti-rootkit will show what the rootkit will "allow".

If appeared. And if the malware does everything quietly, you won't notice anything. For example, information theft does not manifest itself in any way visually. These winlocks and ciphers manifest themselves visually.

Kernel rootkits are not detected on x64

Unsigned drivers are not installed on x64 systems. Like so ?

It is written so. So one trojan could not install its driver for me.

It is clear, understandable, I do not climb to download for free and without SMS.

RicoChiko,
I also use music, but what did I write these add-ons for the browser? And how do they help?

AdBlock is a useful program for blocking pop-up ads. Installed as a browser extension.
NoScript is, in theory, also an extension, it should block Java-script. But here you probably need to work very hard with exceptions - they are used by about 99.999% of sites.

that is, if I install it, then most of all I will not be able to go to many sites? And how did I install it, then added the secure sites to the exception or what?

a question for everyone, is it possible to be infected with some kind of virus or something similar if you just surf the Internet on different sites? How do they get on the computer and start doing bad things?

Adblock blocks pop-ups. As an example, on this page he is currently blocking 5 resources:
http://ad.adriver.ru/cgi-bin/rle.cgi?...(picture)
http://frostbone.playground.ru/www/delivery/ spcjs.php (script)
http://content.videoclick.ru/videointeractive/core-async.js (script)
http: //videoclick.ru/core/code.js? ... (script)
http: // videoclick.ru/storage/flyscreen/core-async.js (script) is

it possible to be infected with some kind of virus or something else similar if you just surf the Internet on different sites
You can. Or he didn’t have an antivirus (or he didn’t have a detection), he picked up something and it goes around for you.

... it's hard to fight with this, but today, for some reason, instead of playing music, the opera became the main browser and in all browsers the mail ru was attached with its visual tabs ((this will probably be forever ...

and someone else says that anivir is not needed)))
although it may not be needed if you do not surf the Internet and do not install anything from a USB flash drive, but just play in shtoto on your computer or do some other robot

Can. Drive-by attack is called. When a virus gets through a browser vulnerability. Read the articles on information security, it is written in detail there (if interesting). At SecurityLab.ru for example.

In short - there is a java script on the site, there is a vulnerability in the browser. The browser executes the script, and then the attacker's arbitrary code is executed. If the browser is running with administrator rights, then the virus will do anything.

If UAC "interferes", and it is inconvenient to sit in a standard account, then you can launch a browser with limited rights. Virusnyak, if he gets through, will also work with limited rights.

There is a virus that works fine with user rights. A standard account doesn't really have that few rights. Who is interested - you can read about it - what rights who have, what virusnyak can do and what cannot. For example, stealing passwords is easy, admin rights are not needed.

and someone else says INTO ANIVIR is not needed)))

And then how lucky. Either the antivirus detects a threat, or does not. If you find it, then you are lucky. Antivirus only reduces the likelihood of infection. Antivirus developers claim that the antivirus protects well - but these are such fairy tales. They also need to sell more antiviruses, so they praise their product.

Regarding "antivirus is needed / not needed" - who needs it - let it use it. Whoever believes that antivirus is impenetrable believes until the antivirus misses something. Once upon a time I also believed. I had different antiviruses, they let me through, of course, and it became clear that they only insure. Elementary safety rules must be observed, even if the antivirus is worth it.

Do you think that you do not have an anti-virus? You are wrong. Open the Windows Control Panel and look for "Windows Defender" there. This is a built-in antivirus for Windows. It works quietly without any alerts and updates databases with Windows updates.

And for some reason in many tests its result is considered a plinth.
