"Malware or worse"
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.8
Pros
None, avoid like the plague.
Cons
Anvisoft is run by a famous Chinese hacker named Tan Dailin ( a. k. a. Wicked Rose, Withered Rose) In 2007, Verisign's iDefense released a report about Wicked Rose. For the whole scary story read the Krebsonsecurity expose of Anvisoft. According to commentators on Krebsonsecurity, The Canadian address for Anvisoft is a mailbox. The Anvisoft address for the United States headquarters does not exist. Read all of the comments, they were written by skilled people.
Summary
DO NOT BUY.

"Found what another didn't"
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.8
Pros
I have been using it free for a few months and it finds things and gets rid of them, which SpyHunter did not find and helped my computer to run more smoothly.
Cons
It seemed to interfere with SpyHunter and RegHunter but I've never known such programs not to clash with oneanother.
Summary
I keep favoring the free version of AnviSmartDefender over what I have now so am going to buy it so that I will be real time protected.

"I was told it was free. It isn't."
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.8

Cons
It's very annoying to be told there are many, many errors on your computer and now you'll have to pay to have them removed
Summary
I really resent being lied to!

This program is awesome. It uses very little resources, yet it is very powerful and successfully removed the System Check virus from my computer. It has a great GUI.

Summary
Great

"Trojan Horse"
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.8
Pros
Uninstalling it solved all the glitches and problems on my computer.

Disabled Yahoo mail and AVG and Malewarebytes, and several other programs, and gave many false positives of malware that didn't even exist.

"Cnet rate this with 5 stars?"
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.5
Pros
Its free, realtime protection
Cons
Misses a lot, many false positives,
Summary
How on earth Cnet can rate this with full marks is beyond any logic.
This product is new to market and not long out of Beta, if you Google for reviews you will find its rated as very poor by most major sites that tried it.
It has a very high false positive rate and a very low detection rate of genuine threats.
This can be expected to a degree as its a new product that needs more signatures and development.
I would question any review on Cnet now as they have got this one so very wrong.. -
"A definite MUST HAVE!"
Version: Anvi Smart Defender 1.5
Pros
Its fast, light, does everything it says it does, it protects your system. Don't know about ya'll, I'd rather get one or 2 false positives then have to go out and buy another computer. This version is faster, and better.
Cons
Non yet, although you might have to put a couple of items in its ignore list if your running alot of wild program, but other than that perfect. I had to tell them they had a problem or 2, they fixed them quickly....
Also, I love the cleaner thats built in. Between CCleaner and the optimize, you'll keep your system clean from unnecessary junk....Summary
I'm impressed, its fast, lite on resources, the people are great, its a great product, and its for FREE!
Support this software, its the best that has come around in a while,
