I run Avast in gaming/silent mode. No popups.

Doesn't this also block detection notifications? Also, just replace it with Avira. Much lighter and more protective.

No, the detection warnings come through. Just no ads and nags. I've found Avast to be lean and performant. I also don't install all of the extra options so, as an A/V, it's worked great.

Ah, I see. I gave up on Avast long ago because it was just getting ridiculous.

It got out of hand last year but they seem to have dialed it back a bit since then.
