The integrated one on Windows 10, I have turned off, and I do not have it installed for Firefox.
Originally I didn't install it in Firefox anyhow, because that's only a backup browser for me, and it reduced auto playing "flash player ads" by not having it installed, well now they use HTML, those auto playing ads now persist

In IE it's set at click to play, in Edge, it's turned completely off.

Today, Terry Myerson, executive vice president of Microsoft's Windows and Devices group, acknowledged the exploit was being used actively by a sophisticated threat group—the same threat group involved in the hacks that led to the breach of data from the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign. And while a patch is on the way for the vulnerability, he encouraged customers to upgrade to Windows 10 for protection from further advanced threats.

Microsoft customers using Windows 10 with Windows Defender Advanced Threat Detection are already protected against the zero-day, Myerson noted, because the software "will detect STRONTIUM’s attempted attacks thanks to ATP's generic behavior detection analytics and up-to-date threat intelligence." ... {cont}

I have that on my Insider Pro version. On my RTM Pro version I only have Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection.

I'm on the fast ring, but I have blocked new builds due to various instabilities I do not wish to suffer, by simply not giving enough spare disk space to perform the upgrades as they are released.

I was wondering why our file dates were different.
