Pointless “Gift”

At least the first 3 months are free
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Used it for about a month on and off. It slows the machine down so I keep turning things off. If you aren’t a power using you might not ever notice.

Just Use Stock Windows Defender
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not great antivirus. There’s a reason why they give it out for free with computers… I’d actually recommend using stock Windows antivirus instead.

Shame on Best Buy.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Three month software subscriptions are predatory marketing techniques. And I've use them all, they are all junk. I can get malwarebytes for free, and its better than symantec, kaspersky or trend et al. You are pushing unadulterated crap on uninformed consumers. And I speak as an 40 year veteran IT professional . Shame on Best Buy. Stop being a pusher.

Not worth it

undesired add-on
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got it as a free add-on for my main purchase. It is basically useless item. Could have been better if something actually useful item was added.

Unnecessary Software
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Monthly subscription/extortion fee to protect my computer from viruses? No, thank you. My friends in the cyber security field tell me that most viruses are sponsored by the anti-virus companies to keep fear alive and them in business. Either the websites you frequent protect your data or not. A piece of software on your local PC is not much help. So, this came free with another purchase, but I will not be installing it.
