Sr. Citizen On Protecting Against Crypto, etc. On New PC ?
Hello,
Will be getting new desktop PC with W10 in a few days.
Sr. Citizen now, and not ver sharp with PC's anymore, frankly.
My old PC with W7 was clobbered by that CryptoLocker and I think it was called CBT Locker or something similar trojan.
Really terrified that it will happen again on new PC.
Willing to spend some $ on a good program.
I read that W10 has "Windows Defender"
How good is it in protecting against it ?
How good in general ?
If I purchase a program, is MalwareBytes the one to get specifically for the Crypto like trojan protection ?
Would also, probably want to run MS Windows Defender, if you advise to do so.
And, AVG which I am using now on my W7 PC; it seems to do a good job with the conventional
problems. But, again, it is really the CryptoLocker stuff that concerns me primarily.
What is your advice on which to get and run, please ?
*Any problems with their interacting with each other.
Thanks for help, much appreciated,
Bob
