F-secure Safe

I have F-secure Safe and was wondering if it has a firewall and virus protection or wether i should upgrade to another F-secure product.

Windows Defender is different to Windows Firewall, as WD is an anti spyware / malware application, so FS automatically disables it to prevent possible conflicts.
Malwarebytes is actually quite a good replacement for Windows Defender, as it does the same sort of thing, only better, and is compatible with FS.6 1Like

Thankyou for that.Its safer protection than F-secure internet security then.
It's essentially the same.
If you want an additional layer of protection, I would recommend Malwarebytes, which will run alongside FS, and can offer protection against certain things, like adware, which FS doesn't.

Thankyou for that ill give it a try
MWB will work fine with FSIS.
Tks for prompt response. I have been considering other options due to some negative feedback regarding FS Firewall but don't have enough knowledge to take it all in.
Ive downloaded and bought Malwarebytes and its working a treat.It cleared a lot of stuff off my system.Its well worth the £17.95p for a years subscription.Together with FSS gives me peace of mind for around £43 per year.
I dont really understand it all.But i was concerned when all of a sudden Windows Defender just decided to shut down and wont re start.
