Hi, so I've used Defender for a lot of years but last week I downloaded an untrusted app and the next day my Facebook and Discord accounts were hacked.

I formatted my PC protected all my accounts by closing current sessions, changed passwords, added 2SV. Also did a scan on the other drives/partitions to remove old malicious apps I had stored.

Since then I've been super cautious with my safety and did a browser extensions curation, installed Malwarebytes, and stopped using untrusted software.

Right now I'm considering switching from Defender to another Antivirus as Defender has improved over the years but it obviously didn't protect me enough.

Is BitDefender the best free Antivirus alternative to you?

Both of my nparents (malignant indoors/covert outdoors mom, covert/enabler dad) are about 70 and I feel they'll live forever. Actually they're pretty healthy.

On the other hand I see loving parents from people around me passing but those 2 are immortal.

How old are yours?
