    "More Improvement Needed"

    August 16, 2012  |   By saif_msn

    Pros

    Very Effective Free Protection, Does What Its Supposed To Do, Lots Of Options.

    Cons

    There Are Some Compatibility Issues, Now PopUps? Payments?

    Summary

    I Liked Avast Very Much, Used It In Several PCs. Version 6 Was Very Good, But Version 7 Conflicts With My Genuine Windows 7 Professional X64 During Startup. Seems To Work Fine In WinXP Though. I Tried To Install Old Version 6 But Now It Wont Install Saying I Must Be Connected To The Internet & The Setup Will Download The Latest Version... How Funny! Now I'm Seeing The Reviews That It Generates PopUp Windows? This Wasn't Included In The Previous Versions! Why Now? Some Guy Also Wrote That I Need To Pay For Proper Removal Of Captured Viruses? After Using Version 6 I Thought Avast Was Gonna Rule As Free AntiVirus But Now Seems Like Avast Is Going Backwards With The Current Version. Switching Back To Microsoft Security Essentials Until Avast Fixes The Issues...
