I got sick of Avast security and read on a couple Mac sites that it does more harm than good. That Macs have built-in XProtect. I was directed towards free products such as Eclectic Light Company's SilentKnight2 and ObjectiveSee's KnockKnock and BlockBlock.
However, I'm not sure how well these work with a Hackintosh. I tried using Silentknight's updater (see screenshot), and suddenly I couldn't boot and had to restore from backup. It could have been a coincidental hard drive failure...
What is recommended security protocol? Is XProtect updated in Hackintoshes? If not, should I reinstall Avast, or something like it?
