Thanks Bitdefender
Not exactly an expert input, but just to say thanks to the people behind the app (free version!). Today it notified me - and dealt with - a ransomware attack (.venus). No idea where it came from, but it was quarantined and deleted. My brother-in-law in Australia (lawyer) was not so lucky some months back. Very grateful.
