"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.

Cons

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.

"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.
Summary
Sorry I downloaded this wolf in sheep's clothing, but such is my experience with it.
