Antivirus polls have lost much of their former entertainment value. Despite of this I ask (For the last time?): What FREE antivirus do you prefer?
https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-free-ai-driven-security.87965/ -EDIT- BTW - Wise is actively used against malware hub samples. It's performance to date has been damn impressive I must admit.
Change the poll selections to include Eset since it is no. 2 in market share: https://www.zdnet.com/article/symantec-eset-mcafee-rank-first-in-windows-anti-malware-market-share/
It does have a place to select "Commercial antivirus", but if Eset is added then you may as well add all AVs and change the title to "What antivirus do you prefer?"
I'm using two different paid AV's at the moment but as soon as the licenses expire they will be replaced by Windows Defender.
Besides the thread Itman posted. There are also report threads that summarize the product's performance in the Malware Hub August 2019 https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-2-x-august-2019-report.94441/ July 2019 https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-2-stopx-july-2019-report.93582/ November 2019 https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-stopx-november-2019-report.96297/ December 2019 https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-stopx-december-2019-report.96770/ January 2020 https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-stopx-january-2020-report.97253/
Voted "Defender" b/c I can supplement it and manipulate various attributes with group policy and third party tools. I have a small C drive so I decline third party antivirus due to the added bulk.
Voted "no AV"...from years I'm not using such apps but currently I decided to observe how is it with WiseVector StopX on my Win7.
