Lightweight Additional Antivirus for Computers/Laptops.
Many antivirus programs cannot be installed alongside other antivirus programs because they are designed to provide primary protection for your computer. Unlike Smadav, which is designed as additional protection, it is likely compatible and will run well even with other antivirus programs (such as Windows Security/Defender) installed. In this case, Smadav acts as a second layer of defense. Smadav uses various techniques (AI, signatures, heuristics, and others) to detect and remove viruses, further enhancing your computer's security. Because Smadav is very lightweight when running on your computer, it doesn't significantly increase your computer's performance. Therefore, combining Smadav with the antivirus program already installed on your computer will further strengthen your computer's defenses against virus infections.

Smadav has several techniques (AI, Signature, Heuristics, and others) to prevent viruses from spreading via the internet, especially when you download applications (executables) from the internet and run it.
Additional Protection for USB Flashdisk
Smadav has several techniques (Anti-Exe, AI, Signature, Heuristic, and others) to prevent viruses from spreading via USB flash drives. Not only does it prevent viruses, but it will also attempt to remove them and restore files hidden by the virus on the USB flash drive.
Lightweight Antivirus (very small size and memory)
Smadav has the advantage of being very small in size (under 10 MB). It also requires very little CPU resources. Most of the time, when Smadav is active, it only requires a small amount of memory (usually under 20 MB) and uses very little CPU. With such minimal usage, Smadav won't significantly impact or slow down your works, allowing it to remain active alongside other antivirus program already running on your computer (such as Windows Security/Defender).
