Why bother using an active anti-virus? It just bogs down your system and creates hassle. Kind of the opposite of its intended purpose, if you really think about it.

Just run regular scans with a free program like malware bytes and call it a freakin day. Hell you could even schedule the scans, just omit real time protection.

I haven't used Anti-Virus since the early 2000s and have never looked back.

Yes, they are too busy. This is a hobby they work on in their free time, not their jobs.
