Scan:
this i would say, depends on your computer-usage. if you ofthen download Software or visit risky websites or if you use online-banking, you should scan every day, else 2 times per week should be fine.
ya ummm i posted about the updates then came back and couldnt edit
so i opened a scan thread :P
it sounds like unlike 1x i usually UPDATE WED when its released and scan
and scan IF something looks like it installed suspiciously.
UPDATES:
no i DO NOT have your AV i have norton
so according to this 1x week is good like wed way 1x was.
i used do ALL DEEP SCANNING on Fridays because end of week and moved it to wed, but now SBSD AND MALWAREBYTES update few times a day, also
i think ill also run updates for SB and MWB MORNING when i wake 2-4p and night.
SCAN
no i dont dl off risky sites BUT i do online banking
again w 1x it WAS FRI then moved to wed because of wed releases
but now its more times i would do it 2x a week
WED :mid week SAT because WED to wed SAT is MIDDLE
id also scan if something looks suspicious
TY :D
i guess im still confused w new 2.1Quote:
