What antivirus software is recommended for fast and effective protection?

Kim Komando 0:00

I've tried a lot of antivirus software over the years, and when something better comes along, I switch. That's why I've moved to WebRoot Essentials. WebRoot Essentials is a cloud-based, AI-powered antivirus app that was designed to evolve with today's threats. It's fast, lightweight protection that works across all my devices without slowing me down. If you need another reason to switch, get this – WebRoot Essentials recently ranked number one in independent Passmark performance studies against nine other brands, like Norton, McAfee, and even Microsoft Defender. The study found that WebRoot Essentials scans six times faster, uses far less memory, and takes up 33% less space on your computer. I've seen the difference WebRoot has made for my devices, and now you can too.

Go now while you're thinking about it. Webroot.com slash Kim. A listener named Kara lost her home in a fire. When she filed her insurance claim, the adjuster asked her to list everything. She could not prove what she owned. Don't let that be you. The average home holds $300,000 to $400,000 worth of stuff. Your insurance adjuster won't take your word for any of it. Here's the fix. Open your phone and walk every room. Film everything. Open the closets, drawers, garage. Talk while you record. Then drop those photos and videos into your favorite AI chatbot.

and ask it to analyze your images as a senior insurance adjuster. Generate a room-by-room inventory with current replacement values. It will identify brands, models, everything.

Let's see. Michelle in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Hi, Michelle. Hi, Kim. How are you doing today? Great. Thanks for your call. So what's going on?

Michelle 3:10

I've been looking at getting an Apple iWatch, you know, Apple iPhone watch, and I've been kind of concerned about, well, maybe I can do a little recycling, do the whole refurbishing. So I was hoping, what's your suggestion on refurbished electronics like Apple watches?

How can you ensure you have proof of your belongings for insurance claims?

Michelle 3:26

Excuse me.

Kim Komando 3:27

You know, a lot of it depends upon where you buy the used gear from and what type of warranty, guarantee, return policy that they have. I mean, your worst case is to just go to Facebook Marketplace, right? Okay.

Michelle 3:42

Yes, I was looking at that, yep.

or Craigslist or eBay or anything like that. Now, Amazon has this whole thing called Amazon Renewed. I actually bought a used Apple monitor or studio. They're real expensive studio display. And I saved like $300 by buying Amazon Renewed. They test them, they inspect them, and then they come with a 90-day warranty. So if it doesn't work, you don't like it, you can get it back.
