  "textContent": "I feel I need to stress again a few points. Antivirus-es today are mostly about Web Protection, not single, nefarious virus files downloaded from questionable websites - although this can still occur too.\n\nWindows Defender's Web Protection is only fully active on Microsoft Edge. That's \"SmartScreen\" It might only partially work on \"known browsers\", and is most probably ineffective, or even completely irrelevant on Pale Moon. So, it does mostly nothing for Pale Moon users.\n\nWhat does exist is \"Network Protection\". This is an enterprise feature that extends protection at the network level, system-wide. It is not enabled on home versions on Windows. It can be enabled via PowerShell, however: I cannot vouch for its effectiveness, especially for Pale Moon, and I'd never recommend any user to enable this on a home PC. You will probably open another can of worms and still remain on the same, unfriendly UI and poor performance. Most probably poorer, due to the extra work.\n\n* * *",
