Do I really need antivirus for a HTPC?
HTPC watches ATSC OTA HDTV.
HTPC goes to netflix.com
HTPC goes to amazon prime video.
That is all, no email, no browsing.
It does pick up shares on the home LAN and all those PC have AV protection.
I have been using the HTPC for a week with no problems and have run Malwarebytes.
Isn't the risk pretty low for getting a virus?
How about just running malware bytes once a week or so.
