"Not Free!!!"
Version: EAV Antivirus Suite Free Edition 6.3
Pros
Didn't have it long enough to find out.
Cons
Sure, it's free unless you want to update the virus database. That's going to cost you about $30 for the upgraded version.
Summary
If you are going to claim your software is free, then make it free or make it trial version, don't expect people to pay for something they couldn't even try first.

"Works Great so far"
Version: EAV Antivirus Suite Free Edition 6.3
Pros
It found a virus before I even updated it that Spybot missed. I am a online gamer and I like the option of shutting the anti-virus off if I want to. Some anti's will not allow you to shut them off even from Task Manager , this one did.
Cons
It found a active X that it called a IE virus, I use Firefox and not IE so it might have been a false + idk
Summary
I downloaded it and it found a virus on my PC before I updated or even ran a scan, all I did was download it and it had found something. I noticed a speed increase after removing the virus so it was a legit threat. I was surfing wile running the scan and it didn't seem to slow me down that much, I was impressed.

"my computer was infected & EAV fixed it quickly"
Version: EAV Antivirus Suite Free Edition 6.20
Pros
I had tried fixing my computer with other, higher scoring products that failed, including one that I had paid for. I was so happy to find EAC & find an easy to understand & use product. I HIGHLY recommend this product
Cons
The only thing that I don't like is that I have to turn the firewall on each time but will keep working with it to see if its something that I'm not doing right. I still highly recommend this as an antivirus.

"Great overall program."
Version: EAV Antivirus Suite Free Edition 6.10
Pros
This program does a great job. It has a few extra features that are nice also. It does not slow down my system like most others do which has always been a reason for me not to use antivirus in the background.
Cons
none that I can say.
Summary
I would like to add that the other review that talks about this program being rouge software I have to disagree. I have not seen any deceptive practices by this software, and it has not given me any scares either. I am not saying anything about the reviewer or calling them a liar, I am only stating I personally have not had any problems.
