4JF - you can use malware bytes fine together with any of the common av programs such as avast. Always DL and use a recent copy of MB.

I gave my great-grandson (20 months) toy tablet but he much prefers mine and took some not very good photographs with it!

I have found malwarebytes very good including clearing up problems kaspersky missed
