    "The nag screens would not go away. Frustrating"

    by mmgonzales on December 31, 2009

    Pros: It worked OK, but no auto update feature when I used. Did good on scans; worked well on a friends PC, which did have malware, which it did clean. User interface was good; easy to work with.

    Cons: The nag screens would not go away; they just got in the way of your regular work. I tried the fixes to no avail. It became so frustrating I uninstalled. I would not recommend. I switched to AVAST Home Edition about a year ago and am very happy.

    Summary: AVAST is the only one that has worked very well for me. I tried AVG, not for long, AVG had too many issues; I used Mcafee for years, but the crashes became intolerable. AVIRA was ok, but the nag screens got in the way of my regular work and became ... read more

    "Best free anti-virus around. Liked it enough to buy."

    by sixwingsfire on December 31, 2009

    Pros: Excellent customizable protection, effective, easy to use, customizable scheduling. You can set up times to update and when to scan, what type of scan, and on and on. Non-intrusive functionality and a nice GUI.

    Cons: None. Some people complain about the ad to upgrade to a paid version you get after the updates. I think that's silly to complain about since this is a free program. I'll gladly close a window once a day to be able to use this great software for free

    Summary: Very effective, very customizable. There are other free tools on their site that compliment this one. My Kasperski subscription ran out, and I had used this on other people's computers recently. I liked it so well that I did not go back to Kasperski.... read more
