I have used
Avast as my only source
of Antivirues software for many years
now. This software is excellent! I have
never had any virus thanks to the real-
time shields that constantly protect my
computer when I’m online. Since my
computer is always connected to the
Internet, Avast automatically starts up
when I turn on my computer. I never
have totell it to protect my computer because it
protects non-stop( unless if a person
would manually turn off protection) .
Before having Avast I used to pay for
antivirus software . With the paid
programs I always had problems. Since
switching to Avast I do not have any
problems with viruses. Avast performs
much better than the paid antivirus
software I used in the past( McAfee and
Norton) . Now I only recommend Avast to
everyone I know for antivirus
protection.
The only thing I have to do manually
with Avast is regular scans on my
computer. Every month I always do a
full scan of my computer on the first day
of the month. The process only takes
about a half hour and I can still work on
other things( including being online)
during the scanning process.
At first I was a little cautious about
trying out free antivirus software,
