Please note. We aren't recommending no anti virus. We are saying just use the built in windows defender.

Honestly, the only anti-virus you need is Windows Defender, and then monthly scans with malwarebytes free. There is no need for any other anti-virus.

There is never a need to pay for anti-virus. Windows Defender and Malwarebytes are all you need

....... and you never even got a straight answer to your question, which is : Yes, Panda is compatible with Firefox.

But like Tyler Downer already mentioned : you don't need it.

Personal note : I think you're even better off without additional antivirus software.

Please note. We aren't reccomending no anti virus. We are saying just use the built in windows defender.

And Firefox doesn't care what anti-virus you use, it runs with all of them
