Worst antivirus you ever used?

[Henrywrites]

We make use of antivirus on our various gadgets to protect our files from being corrupted. I have made use of a couple of them since I began making use of my PC. Is there any antivirus software that you ever regretted making use of?

I had AVG back in the XP days, and it took a ton of resources on your CPU. It basically bogged your computer down while it was scanning.

AVG was both resource intensive and the only antivirus that I ever got a virus on, so it would also be that.

We tried that one years ago and now that you bring it up, yes, that's why we dropped it and then went to Avast instead because of that same reason. But then after using Avast for a few years, a Windows update decided to make it's own antivirus my default without my permission, and then my PC crawled so badly I couldn't do anything. It took a lot of searching on my phone to figure out what happened and that the two programs were battling it out. I had to eventually remove Avast, and it was a good program until Windows did what it did.
