Title: Avast 5 Free So lite And plays well with others
Post by: AnthonySavino on February 21, 2010, 03:57:04 AM
I used avast for I think 3 years now. I never had a problem with it except some tiny issues with 4.8. I will always trust avast over any paid for app. I have tested it myself and read tests and it never fails to perform as good as the so called top av's. This new version 5, I think is the best of all the av's out there I used it since it was out in beta and loved it. It works well with the antispyware program I use which is webroot spysweeper. I had a chance to use spysweeper with av but I didn't like how the sophus engine performed it was less than satisfactory. However Spysweeper does very well with its job so I decide to use Avast & Spysweeper. This combo works alot better. Webroot should have teamed up with Avast, I bet they would have done alot better in av removal. Thanks for this free product  ;D

Yeah I love that game mode myself. 4.8 didn't have it but games still ran ok. But this version is just great. They say avast 5 didn't do as well as Norton in the tests. But it looked like it was close. It did great when I tested it. I would bet money Its better at detection than Norton. I bet these testers get paid off or something lol. I shouldn't accuse I guess. :-[   ;D But it does seem funny.
