    Speaking of virus, I feel my troll detector is about to jump...

    Audnord, you are using the free Xupito Anti Virus And Malware Detection, you need to upgrade to premuim Xupito Anti Virus And Malware Detection for a yes or no answer. :)

    You were correct, I just notched it up 1...:rofl:

    Torrent will always depend on others computers connections.

    I can't think why anyone would be online with their studio. I have never used any pirated software that might require an internet connection, but I believe there is even a way around this.

    I have been online for 10 years without any problems. Well, I ran in to a timebomb once but that release seemed to be wonky for everyone. For me it's just about convenience.

    The question is: Why do you have to redownload all the stuff? Can't you just copy over everything
    or do you download, install and delete the installers? I mean that would be like building up a new pc
    and throwing away all the Packages, the tools and other materials, just to buy everythinng again
    for your next pc.

    Stay on WIndows 10 1607 Enterprise and use WIndows Defender only.
    You don't have to install any "anti-spy" or "virus-detector" the only things I'm using for years without any problems are "uBlock origin" for Chrome and the hosts file trick https://someonewhocares.org/hosts/ and that's all.

    I got terrabytes DAW/VSTi/VST from ruTracker, Audionews, from AudioZ as well never ever got any virus I use my laptop like this for 4 years now, no problems.
    Warez is safe don't worry.

    make sure to use firefox instead of any google chrome crap, apple crap etc.
    I usually download stuff from the warez and got no prob at all. just make sure to have a normal antivirus

    check your taskmanager, chrome has parts that are always active and use CPU even when chrome is closed. it's really annoying.

    wonder when those virus injecting idiots will start to inject the virusses in keygens, a lot of people will overlook those thinking they belong in there as random serial generators

    some serious network control is essential, literally all malware is designed to "call home";

    I've been testing Glasswire, fairly good when run in mode when processes are blocked by default and prompt/request network access;

    another option (maybe safer, but less comfortable) is to use VMWare with another Windows guest to go online with bridged network adapter, and on primary host just set fake/nonsense gateway on network interface, so you cut off internet completely
