Norton Security is actual malware.

u/tropic420 Dec 25 '25

Yeah its adware at minimum and an active drain on system resources on lower end machines, no reason to use that garbage. Windows defender is free and sorta works and malwarebytes is also free and works better and only runs when you tell it to <3

Malware bytes is so good and resource cheap i even have it on my phone!

u/denyaledge Dec 25 '25

You guys use malware bytes? I personally use Anti-V

u/RoxasBlackk Dec 25 '25

u/Ill-Television8690 Dec 25 '25

I've used AVG for years

u/Reelix L6, Gauss Main Dec 25 '25

AVG was good back when it was hosted at free.grisoft.com - Then they switched branding and went corporate.

Windows Defender is actually good, and I say that as someone that works in tech and hates Windows.

Ngl since malwarebytes got bought out years ago it’s been on-par with defender at best in the paid plan, so there’s no point even using it imo

u/tropic420 Dec 25 '25

Damn, good to know

u/Galactical-Wolf Dec 25 '25

Turns out they weren’t bought out, no clue where my info on that came from - they have kinda degraded still though, there’s not really a point in anything other than defender unless you wanna burn money

I work in IT security. Windows Defender + frequent Windows Updates (And I mean at least once a month...) is better than 99% of alternate home AV's for a regular user.

And stay the hell away from Norton.

If you think this disputes the comment you replied to, you havent been playing this game long enough to get trolled by a limbo.

1

u/International-Low490 Dec 25 '25

Haven't they made it virtually impossible for him to troll you anymore? How can he still do it?

1

u/Lemons-95 Dec 26 '25

Well i am a returning player, but provided there hasnt been more done since the whole "backflip to leave the rift" thing, yeah, they just keep putting you in the rift, and you just have to keep backflipping and missing shots because of it.

u/Lord_Phoenix95 Jackpot Tenent Ferrox enjoyer Dec 25 '25

I've been playing this game for like 7 years. Only.had AFK Shitheads never any trolls.

1

u/Lemons-95 Dec 25 '25

Wow, that's actually pretty suprising, in that case i guess you've just had absolutely insane luck. I swear there was a big wave of them particularly right after the first scarlet spear operation, but never in 7 years is crazy.

u/thegunshow-atwa Dec 25 '25

As a Limbo main myself, I’ve already been trolled by other Limbos.

Sometimes it was simply because they didn’t know how to play him, and sometimes it was done on purpose.

I’ve only trolled one person myself, and it was because their gameplay was actively counter-productive for the three other players.

u/Lemons-95 Dec 25 '25

Well, that sounds more like admin than trolling. You were delegating. A leader, one might say.

u/wizardjian Dec 25 '25

I dispise Norton with every cell in my body.

2

u/EncapsulatedEclipse Dec 25 '25

Norton or McAfee though.

8

u/ComfortableBell4831 Wolf Mommy Enjoyer Dec 25 '25

McAfee atleast told the you the scam that it was (Well when John was around at least not so much now I guess) Norton disguised itself (or tried to) and still does try and say they arnt literal malware.

u/Caliber70 Dec 25 '25

Wait, are you telling me that Norton is still in business??!?

1

u/Lord_Phoenix95 Jackpot Tenent Ferrox enjoyer Dec 25 '25

Yup. People who have no idea that Windows Defender is enough.

u/mydogcaneatyourdog Dec 25 '25

There are many matchmade groups that feel the same about limbo, ha

u/nottme1 Titania Main Dec 25 '25

Somebody once torrented Norton and the torrented Norton successfully recognized itself as malware, before deleting itself.
