What are disadvantages of antivirus software?

Answer 1

It's important to have an effective antivirus program on your computer because of the protection they provide, but they can sometimes make a computer run more slowly. Cost is another potential disadvantage; some of the best programs require a yearly fee.

Answer 2

They require a lot of processing power to find the virus. Some programs have scanners that run in the background all the time and others have a full system scan that only runs when you tell it to (this might be on a schedule: weekly monthly). When you buy a program make sure that they have both.

Answer 3

Good anti virus software costs a lot of money, plus the yearly (and sometimes monthly) fee, and some anti virus software updates every day, which can slow down your internet connection when you start up your internet every day.
