Hello I just installed Immunet7 as I saw it in an article and had used it many years back..my question is..Is Immunet7 as good as Windows Defender, and can I use it alone instead of Defender? thanks

Hello Diego, Immunet protection improved a lot with the lastest updates. You can use it alone or with another antivirus if you wish. For a normal user Immunet can offer proper protection by itself.

This is a video from a test some guy made using Immunet.

Interesting video you uploaded Valnat! Thanks for sharing.

As the video demonstrates Immunet has some suburb efficacy! Much better than Microsoft's Defender AV!

As you mentioned Immunet can be used as a stand-alone AV solution but it is recommended you use the ClamAV module if used in that manner.

If Immunet is used as a companion AV to another compatible "paid product" it's best if the ClamAV module and updates for it remain disabled. This will reduce the amount of system resources being used.

Also, don't forget to create exclusion rules for the Program Files folders for both AV's. This can go a long way in avoiding possible conflicts between the two AV's.

Regards, Ritchie...

P.S. I moved this topic to the General forum section since that's a better place for it.
