I also posted a similar image on /r/pcmasterrace, except Avast was warning me about my PC Master Race Heathen Filter plugin.

Well i personally use avast, i'd use "f-secure" (Highest ranked virus security software in the world if i know right.) but it is expensive as shit. Avast is not bad, it's really good for it's price. Some stuff are a little weird.

The whole idea of F-Secure being the best virus security software in the world is a joke. AV-Test is an unreliable source with inconclusive reviews. From what I've heard F-Secure is good, not the best.

The best combo a regular user can get is ESET NOD32 + Malwarebytes Premium. ESET is probably the best paid anti-virus for regular users (home users, not enterprise), and Malwarebytes Premium has great live protection and is really useful against zero-day threats.

Malwarebytes is amazing. I enjoy how you can make schedules for virus scans and automatic updates. I usually have a virus scan every 4 hours

I used to use Norton but the subscription ran out over 2 months ago. I keep getting warnings saying "There's nothing between you and criminals". Shut up Norton, my PC's still alive and well.

If it's an unofficial Chrome extension it will probably flag it. Also, there were apparently some really weird rules, like if a program had the string "bit" in it it would be flagged as a virus. Very weird stuff.

Just disable Avast's internet security and use Web of Trust.

Avast is still a great free anti-virus for virus protection. Works best along with Malwarebytes.
