Just letting you all know my experence with Avast. i have used there free products for 5 years or so, and paid for 3. Now on the 3, I paid for 2 licenses used one. renewed at 6 months with new PC b/c they wont let me use 2nd license. but seemed like they were doing ok so i continued to use it. added some extras from them as they said I "needed" them, help no help idk.
So after all this i get a letter from my ipo saying have virus and i should look into it. so i try avast, and they see nothing, so i download ipo FREE protection and search...finds it everytime, but says been embedded cant be quarantined. So ipo says delete fully and reinstall...
So fyi $100's of dollars a year for protection thats less effective then the free ipo, and I dont have to go through their adds after every scan. They have subpar programs at high prices, they only push for more money and offer less protection.
