@filthyranter so you don't have an antivirus?
-
@filthyranter at all??!
-
@404response Thanks :) great to be here!
-
@deflox yeah that's strange I never got any notifications
-
@c3ypt1c
"This file is dangerous.exe, quarantined"
"It's my own fucking program, so please unquarantine it."
"Okay"
"..."
"This file is dangerous.exe, quarantined" -
@filthyranter ive never had that issue
-
@c3ypt1c Lucky you. I've had that with many antiviruses before. If I unquarantine something, why the fuck would it requarantine it again? Also numerous other issues that made me ditch antiviruses completely, including Windows Defender.
-
@filthyranter have you ever tried Norton?
-
@c3ypt1c Oh god don't remind me of this, that's the worst one
-
@filthyranter what kind of viruses do you program? 😂😂
Jk, but I've never had a problem with Norton, or at least the version I use. In Norton you can exclude folders from being scanned and you can turn off their "SONAR" and stuff like that. -
@c3ypt1c Oh, you know, malware like a small command line program that gives you options to style a "Hello world" output on your screen.

Antivirus software is the modern snake oil. At best, it does not get in your way, at worst it causes a magnitude of problems.
For my Windows machine, I only use the Microsoft tools. That's it.
A good read in that matter:

You have to wonder why our retarded education system still forces students to learn Pascal(Delphi)... 2nd most...
ANTI VIRUSES AREN'T ALWAYS YOUR FRIEND!
So I'm under a little pressure to get an assignment done so I came home an was planning on working on it but Windows had other plans and decided to finish its update which I suspect copied my hard drive and uploaded it to the NSA at dial up speed because it it forever!!
But anyway back to the text in caps lock... I started working on it then when I hit compile I got an "access denied" error in the console and didn't know what the f*** was going on. So I decided to copy my filed to another directory and tried again... amazingly this worked so I carried on and after about 2 hours I get the same error -_- So instead of messing around and loosing my work I decided to commit it... but I cant... again "access denied" error.
After threatening my computer with a trip out the window, I finally decided to reboot it... cause "have you tried turning it off and on again" kept on rattling in my head.
After logging in I tried again and still the same error... Then I opened up my anti virus dashboard and went through the logs and found the screen shot attached.....
