Windows 10: Windows Defender. > Windows Security > Web Protection. = NONE!

A couple days ago I switched from McAfee LiveSafe to Norton Antivirus Plus.

I just now can't remember why opened Windows Defender. In the Windows Security Section, it does list Norton for a few things currently being covered. However, in the middle of that list, it reads Web Protection, NONE. Meaning there is no web protection.

How can Norton Antivirus Plus cover my device, through the internet yet it says I have NO WEB PROTECTION? Is that a mistake or do I have web protection? Can't get a hold of Norton because of this stupid Covid-19 crapola!


Thanks,

Barry

Windows Security

Is Windows Security, Fire Wall and Defender enough to protect a system? All I use it for is games, email, and some surfin the net.

 

Windows Defender Released

Microsoft has released the final version of its Windows Defender anti-spyware utility. Windows Defender is a product of the Microsoft acquisition of GIANT Software. Previously known as Windows AntiSpyware, after a two years beta period it's now available for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 under the name Windows Defender. Windows Defender incorporates Real-Time Protection to monitor systems for spyware activity, automated spyware removal with scheduled scans, full integration with Internet Explorer 7.0 and automatic spyware definition updates from Microsoft. Windows Defender is available freely to all customers running a genuine copy of Windows. Microsoft has also announced that customers will each be allowed to report two support incidents for free with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

Windows built in security

According to the results of AV-TEST's latest run, Microsoft Security Essentials stinks when it comes to protecting a Windows machine (came in dead-last).
