"NASTY VIRUS."
Version: AVG AntiVirus Free 2013 2013.0.3343
Pros
I have nothing positive to speak of.
Cons
I downloaded this to get rid of some spyware, but I got a nasty virus for my trouble. (AVG and MalwareBytes took their free versions off their websites, so I had to turn here.) I knew enough to stay away from cnet, but despite my suspicions and against all good sense I decided to download this anyway. I eventually had to wipe my hard drive. Stay away from this. I am NEVER downloading anything off cnet again.
Summary
You run the risk of getting a virus if you download this. I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but it certainly happened to me.

"finally...a great antivirus that is free"
Version: AVG AntiVirus Free 2013 2013.0.3343
Pros
it beats avast. very simple to install. very easy to configure all the advanced settings. nothing tricky about this but you do have to pay attention when installing. it updates one or more times daily and does very quick scans.
Cons
if you don't pay attention during the installation, it will install unnecessary software.
