Hiya, Ilove,
So you use Malwarebytes in addition to your AV programme. What is spybot for then and why use both?
Basically, Spybot immunizes your laptop from (some of) the EVIL Doers. Dean's
suite of free security software complements one another without conflicting with each other. Also, when I right click on a freshly downloaded file, AV,Malwarebytes and Spybot both show up in the bubble as an option. I just do all three for the heck of it.
"Defender"
I got rid of that years ago. It's Trash compared compared to others out there,
but apparently ranks higher if you have Win10, which brings us to-
They are trying to Trick Us into upgrading to Win10 Don't Fall For It! Ha, well if that's the case no chance! For one my laptop is now in it's 8th year of almost daily battery 
(no pun intended) and (ab)use
, showing very obvious signs of wear and tear 
(I have already replaced the hard drive once and could probably do with another new one right now) and I doubt very much would withstand an incredibly expensive upgrade, plus why put an old machine through that crap anyway?. For two, I have literally ZERO funds to buy WIN 10 or a new laptop at this time... if I could I'd be out the door quicker than The Flash on speed!
But Ilove, Win10 is
FREE! FREE! FREE!

More later, have to get some
So, how's the weather in the UK?
