A "free for personal use" edition of one of the well-known antivirus products was the first thing I installed on my Windows 10 systen after the OS itself. Elapsed time less then five minutes, and it auto-updates. While this system sits behind a FreeBSD gateway that provides limited firewall/anti-virus protection, it's been running for over a year - including browsing and e-mail - with no apparent problems. Is there something I am perhaps unaware of? Respectfully, Robert Huff
