"You remain the best security."
Not one of the security suites today block doucheware entirely. You can see the effect of these by reading:

So far the security and anti-virus software houses are not tackling this problem head on. In fact some antivirus companies were sued for blocking such software.
This means you remain the best defense. Maybe you can avoid this by using Ninite. Here's an article and I'd use an antivirus that I installed with Ninite.

If you find a positive review on any security/antivirus software, they likely omitted the doucheware issue. Ed Bott said it at https://www.google.com/#q=ed+bott+doucheware
Yes, it's a thing now.

About 15 years ago I was really on top of the "best" products for Microsoft PC based products, but that was a long time ago. Does anyone know where I can get reliable reviews of both anti-virus and security software for PC's operating under Windows 7? The generic searches I've done have yielded very conflicting reviews. All help would be appreciated.
Is there a site that isn't supported by advertisements?
