Verified reviewAfter a few years of using the free anti-virus program, I was finally able to afford the paid version of the Internet Security suite. I was / am allowed to load it on up to three machines. And this seems to be the best Internet Security / Anti-Virus program I've ever installed.For the most part, the Avast software does its job without getting in my way. About the only ways of telling that it is truly effective are the occasional malware warnings, or the rarer need to restore my XP system to a previous Restore Point. And to be fair, those instances are usually preceded by me downloading and installing some sort of software that may have been a carrier for malware.The anti-virus scans can be set to operate in the background during lulls in user activity or when the screen savor activates. The brief updates of anti-virus and related files is fairly innocuous, and seldom limits my access to the internet. One new feature I am currently interested in is the Avast Safety Zone, which thwarts key-logging and similar attempts to steal bits of my identity.If there is any downside to MY use of Avast, it is that it is so simple to use, that I seldom take the time to learn about anything more than the basic setup, and don't bother with any advanced features or topics which might further boost security and privacy. But, I haven't really found a compelling need to do so, and would just as soon work with the computer, being productive, rather than work on it, which is usually not so productive.All in all, Avast seems to be THE computer security solution for most people with typical needs, and a desire to get some actual work done. I heartily recommend it.

Verified reviewthis afternoon i checkef my email and found a mesage from avast asking me to give them a good review here being a loyal user of avast for years and having no issues at all i thought sure why not, then i come to the link they gave me and start reading some of the other reviews, to my asthonishment i find page after page of unhappy customers. yes that did shock me but what really floored me was the fact that the issues everyone was complaining about happento be the same issues i havebeen having and did not know that my very own av service caused them. wow!!

Verified reviewI am a computer professional that has over 30 years in the IT industry. I now teach network engineering classes and I recommend Avast to all of my students. Many of them need and inexpensive but effective malware protection solution and Avast fits that bill very nicely.I started using Avast by installing the free version. After getting a couple years of solid protection for free I decided that I should reward the company who produces it for their fine product. I have been paying for Avast for several years now and I still love it as much as ever. In all the time that I have used Avast I have been warned of dangers numerous times and steered to safety by the product. Many of the new features, like Safe Zone, give me a bit more peace of mind.

Verified reviewI had been using free avast for 2 years before I switched to Internet security. I am glad I did cause I enjoy it a lot. It is nonintrusive and user friendly. Avast decides on actions to take on its own most of the time and is perfect for those who are not good with computers. I like its software updater feature when It reminds to update important software like Java. Also avast provides a ""SafeZone"" to protect your online banking or other important activities in the internet. Avast prevents access to malicious or suspicious websites which I find extremely useful. To sum up. the product is great and hassle free, never had a problem with it in 4 years.

Verified reviewI have used several different security software, none have been as satisfactory to me as avast. I was having a lot of trouble with programs that have deleted necessary drivers and not protected my computer as I expected. Some have directed me to other software that has done a lot of harm to my computer to where it would not function properly. I was leary of trusting anyone. I started with the avast free version, then as I saw their work decided to buy the subscription last August. Avast has come in and cleaned out my computer and has so far kept my computer clean.I recommend avast to all my family members and friends. Try it! I do not believe you will be dissappointed.

Verified reviewThe first time I used Avast was when it was a free down load. A supervisor at work recommended that I use it to prevent Mr.Trojan Horse and things like the pop ups that are claiming your machine is plagued when they are the ones plaguing it! Ring a bell? So after about maybe two years of some good use Avast became no longer a free download. So instead of being such a tight wad I decided all the free service had to be worth the price of approximately $35.00 for a year. So I did. And it has worked quite well. Many times over it has blocked a website and cut it off to prevent it from getting in and it also has trapped viruses for me to execute in the holding cell as I like to call it. I like to down load stuff off of U-tube and if anyone else does this they know that sooner or later you have stuff that slips by. Avast catches most of it too. But I get so raunchy I out do myself. Anyone else here do this? Gnaw...I didn't think so. I must be the only one. So then earlier this year I had something called ""Ghost Genie that managed to get in. I would find it in the control panel-Add Remove programs and I would remove it and then I would remove the folder it creates in my C drive. But more things got in. I discovered a folder with 2 files in it and I could not remove it. Then within the hour the Ghost Genie would also come back. U-tube would not even play on my internet. My machine was now haunted. I called Avast and I was asking about something this situation because I knew that they had tech support. Because It was reformat time! The guy at Avast looked at my status and he said that I only had the basic program. He said for $170.00 dollars I could have full tech support for a year. At that time I didn't really quite know what to do. This guy assured me that they could remove everything and replace damaged or missing files for my windows 7 with ease. So I gave it a try. they instantly right over the phone connected with my computer and uploaded a whole set of tools. They cleaned up everything and I was good to go in about an hour. Then I noticed that there was still that file I couldn't get rid of after they were done. I called em back. No problem...they got right to it. cleaned up even some more stuff. Then after this time in about an hour ""Ghost Genie"" came back!! I called em again. They got right on it and I told the guy over the phone that I didn't think they could get it. Now it was personal. He spent about almost 2 hours in my system running a program in Dos. He found fake web browsers. I watched him kill the ghost genie. This was actually fun. It died like a spirit indeed. Now it has been about 3 weeks and no sign of anything. System clean. I can call them up right this minuet if I need to. They will connect and start doing things I cannot do. many different products are out there to buy for this but these guys used about 6 of them from a tool box program. And they know things that I do not. For me it has been really cool! Nothing like I have ever seen before. It almost sort of looked like fun watching them go to work. You can also leave and they will do it and then shut down your computer when they are done and leave you a note or they will leave it running for you. Basically I cannot say enough good things about them. I even am going to download this one program I originally have that is a U-tube downloader. After I down load it I then go to Programs-Add/remove and remove about 5 other things they install. This worked fine for me, but after a while I downloaded some other thing and it was much worse. I opened up Pandora's box big time! But I was thinking ...if I get my U-tube downloader running and then take that folder and icon and burn it to a back up CD. Have Avast come in and clean up anything else and then when I want the U-Tube downloader just put that folder and icon back on and not have to go through the install plague it insists.I guess I'll never learn. With this group it seems like I don't have to. I paid $170.00 for the extra service for a year so why not play a little bit.

Verified reviewI love this anti-virus because it does a lot to protect my computer & what I do but it is also fun. I have my language set to to ""Pirate Talk"" which gives it a whole new level of fun. The ""Safe Zone"" is also awesome.Another great thing is it doesn't slow my computer down like other anti-virus' do. I have used other anti-virus' & my computer was slowed down a great deal to where it was hard to get any work done with them. With Avast! it's not slow at all. I can get my work done & know that I'm protected. I tell everyone I know to get Avast! instead of the others.

Verified reviewWell I've had Norton and now I have avast and Norton does give you more protection and a few more perks but you also need a nice computer to run Norton otherwise it will slow down you computer like none other and its very annoying. Avast on the other hand gives you exceptional security and their virus protection is also great and it doesn't slow down your computer and its about 1/4 of the price of the newest Norton out there so I'd defiantly recommend it.

Verified reviewI would recommend this product to anyone looking for an alternative to the other internet security software out there. The user interface for this program is very easy to work with and configure to your needs. The program frequently updates to combat known threats and viruses typically once every day or so. The add on features that work with your browser of choice are also a nice feature, it adds to the protection and protects from hidden threats that may be present on a website.

Verified reviewI have been using Avast for close to 6 years and recommend it to my friends. It is easy to work with and I am notified of updates needed. It blocks a website and notifies you of the blocked website. The free Avast is wonderful and I recently added the enhanced security even though I really feel secure without the extras. But in this day and age it is best to be safe. I recommend it to everyone no matter what level they need

Verified reviewI have been using the free version for a while now but upgraded to the more robust features of a paid subscription. I not only have Avast installed in our home server but on our Android phones too. What an amazing way to secure your phone and even take a photo of the person who has tried to unlock your device linked with Google maps pinpoint of where the event occurred.We feel safer knowing that Avast is there to protect. I am constantly recommending this software to friends and family.

Verified reviewAvast! software provided a free download so I subscribed to it. After a year's subscription, I liked Avast so much, I purchased their Internet Security upgrade.. I have tried two other virus softwares and found they did not interface with other programs as well Avast! did. I like the daily reports which gives you the option of showing details of that report. They provide current updates which makes your computer more secure. They inform the recipients of your emails that they are virus free. Avast! has also kept my computer Spam free. Avast! has competitive pricing of several options. Choose Avast! for your computer - you will be very pleased.

Verified reviewI switched to Avast after many years of frustrated use with of Norton. Like everything else I buy I did my usual research before making a buying decision, and found that Avast always scored very high in all the different categories. And although they offer a free version, I decided on one of their competitively priced premium versions that would give me coverage on three pc's for a two year subscription period.On several occasions it has caught various malware and trojan horse viruses, and for that, I was extremely thankful. I also want to commend their live support team who have been very helpful with any questions I've had. I've been very happy with this product, and would recommend it highly

Verified reviewI have not had any problems with this software. Great options too, you can do a free version or you can pay for an upgraded version. The free version does most of what you need, which makes it great compared to other software. But even if you would like to do more and decide on the paid version. Compared to other programs, Avast is much cheaper. I know many friends that use Avast and I would recommend Avast to everyone.

Verified reviewI was constantly having issues with McAfee security suite. An online technician recommended the free Avast virus protection. I was so impressed with the program, that I purchased the whole package. It is so easy to use and cost way less than McAfee. In three years, I've only had one minor problem which was solved in minutes.

Verified reviewI have had it ever since my computer crashed from a virus that Mcafee couldn't tackle. I feel so very secure with it. I did not buy thought Amazon (as I do most things) However, One would be wise to have it on his/her computer.

Verified reviewI have used Avast for 3 1/2 years. I started with the free version and then after a year I opted for the paid version. I have never had a problem. I like that it lets you know when it has updated. It gives me a peace of mind to know that I am safe on the internet.
