The Biden administration announced a ban on Kaspersky antivirus software on June 21, citing national security concerns due to the company's links with Russia.

    Tbh, uBlock Origin + brain.exe has been carrying the heaviest load for years for me. Windows Defender would catch 80% of the occasional slips where brain.exe wanted some risks, too.

          Oh no, not at all. First, you need to download the dependencies tho. Start with downloading more ram.
