Quite good
Windows User
It really is a very good antivirus program. It has, according to various tests, good detection and works very discreetly in the background. I can only recommend.
Protects you from zero-day
Windows User
Eset currently has the best detection of all antivirus programs I've tested on zero-day malware. It does not slow down the PC! The user interface is clearly arranged and kept simple. If safety is important, you should definitely try it out.
