Pros: Works Great and is Free!

"Excellent Anti-Virus and It is FREE"
Pros: It does and excellent job detecting viruses, automatically updates regularly, is easy to use, even for the beginner. I have tried many programmes, including McAfee, Kaspersky, AVG and Norton very briefly.. I am most comfortable with AVAST.
