So.. I've got 1 Windows box (which I barely use) .. and 2 Debian boxes (my daily drivers).

There's ESET NOD32 (don't like the free ones) on all of them and the license is about to expire. Should I renew it?

I mean.... there was not a single incidence with malware/viruses since I purchased the AV. Which may be because I (usually) know what I'm doing and acting paranoid af.

On the other hand... better save than sorry πŸ€”

what's your opinion?

@TFG

I dont know, but on the Windows machines I have managed and used the past years seems to do fine with the built-in protection that windoze has. Even companies seems to trust it nowadays

@selea @Archivist @jonn @anders @cody

I agree that the windows box has to be some sort of protected. And I'm sure the built in AV would do the trick. But I'm hesitant about the Debian boxes. πŸ€” ... they are firewalled at least...

Are your linux systems AV protected?

The matter is.. if I subscribe for ESET AV (Windows) .. I get as many Linux/Android/younameit licenses as I want for free

@TFG

I just run ClamAV on Linux actually.
I did try to get ESET running on Linux on my previous job, but it did not like Debian at all lol
