No. But this thread has nothing to do with linux - you just decided to bring it up as a magical solution to everyone's problems.

I'm not even going to attempt to tell you what is better for *your* pc, and I suggest you do the same.

Have you actually read the whole thread?

People were discussing other antiviruses, Go ahead and read it. I invite you to do as such.

Seriously, Get over your "zOMG WINDOWS IS THE BEST" attitude because it's not true in every aspect and is flawed.

BAHAHAHAHAHA - far from the truth. I'm a linux systems engineer, my entire job revolves around linux, my entire company revolves around linux. I have 1 windows system - its name is hades. I'm not a huge fan of Windows - but at the same time I'm not going to respond to someone having issues with their AV blocking a website with "well, if you were using Linux this wouldn't happen!!!1!one!!!1!!!eleventy"

It's eminently possible to fix the problem without resorting to completely rebuilding their system (which is non-trivial for most people) and learning to work with an entirely new OS.

But you are acting like a fanboy.

You pop up like a jack-in-the-box, ignore the entire thread, and announce that Linux will fix everything.
At the very least, it's rude and inconsiderate - but it's certainly off-topic.
