You can play for and against any country, but I just can't get used to fighting with wooden shoes.
Let's play Sid Meier's Pirates - 07: For the Dutch! - YouTube[^]
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Yes, that takes years of practice, but you can really kick-ass with wooden shoes 
That video looks slick btw, I played an older version of Pirates on the Atari ST with low resolution graphics if I remember well ...

Careful. When you start chasing the governors' daughters, they will expect you to dance [^] at the ball.

I started off with it, but it slugged my computer every afternoon despite being told it could scan at a specific time. Dumping it for Kaspersky got rid of the problem and (once you tell it to elephant the adverts) it's given me no problems. The "country specific" installation and pricing is a PITA though!

I was running Kaspersky for a long time on all of my family's computers, then dumped that, because it would still hose the computer unless a person was running games or pulled the plug temporarily to let Kaspersky think you were in low power mode. I haven't seen any options to stop scanning otherwise.

Thank you for your answer OG...

I'm using Windows Defender at work in a development environment with VS2017 and have no issues (so far )
Before I used AVG which worked fine too once you excluded the VS directories from scanning ...

Nice, thank you for your answer Rick...

Interesting. Do you happen to know whether excluding a directory is possible with the free version of AVG? If so, I haven't found it yet.

Thank you very much. That is very helpful!

For peace of mind I also run a Malwarebytes scan once a week(I use the free versionf Malwarebytes).

That is important... yes, but I do that whichever AV is installed... Thank you Guy!

The built-in Windows Defender indeed is "good enough" for me not to want to spend money on a commercial AV.
The only thing I despise about it is the fact that the AV signature updates are coupled with the rest of the Windows updates. This means that, as I've configured WU to tell me about available updates rather than just going ahead and installing whatever's available, I get prompted to install AV signatures 2-3 times a day.

It is a pity they don't have it separated... 
Thank you for your answer!

Other AV-software is better and has newer signatures. I also like to have the AV from other than Microsoft.
Believe it or not: I use Avast for years now. (it is always and in any tests the top ranks)
Press F1 for help or google it.

Yes, usually I would say the same... but the current marks of Microsoft AV in AV-Test look good...
Anyway, AVAST seems to be the one to choose from the free ones...

I'm happy with windows defender, it's enough and relax.
