Version: Avast Home Edition - Free Antivirus 4.8.1351
"simple to use, automatic updates and it's free!"
Pros: It does not slow the computer down, like Norton or Macafee. Furthermore, it is free of charge, whereas the competition charge a lot for a mediocre service.
Cons: There is really nothing to dislike - other than perhaps greater peace of mind that the product actually does protect my computer.
Summary: I really like the simplicity and usability of the product. It is free of charge and much better that the competition. I would like some confidence-building measure that assures me the product really does protect my computer- I don't mind paying a small fee for this. Just knowing thhere's nothing wrong with my PC isn't enough - I need to know how it works and what it's doing to keep the PC safe from virus attacks.
