What's the fastest loading antivirus scanner?

[Techie333]

I just want to know the fastest loading antivirus scanner so that it reduces Windows startup time? Thanks!

I simply disable the real-time protection feature. I'd recommend an AV based on detection rates, not one that may startup faster than others. If you want recommendations then start here.

CA has the smallest footprint.
