How good is the cleaner?
« on: August 13, 2004, 03:59:34 PM »
I have tried several Antivirus products.  They all have good qualities.  Most have good GUIs, most find viruses.

But, in my opinion, finding viruses is useless, unless the product also CLEANS the viruses out of memory and off the HD.

My questions are:

HOW well does Avast! clean viruses?  How easy does it do it?

Better is the protection and prevention...

You must try avast! Cleaner to see. It's a standalone application that corrects a very few number of infections. Indeed all other antivirus 'correct' very few of them.

Anyway, avast Home/Pro version uses a new technology called VRDB: virus recovery database. You will love it  8) Try to browse for more information into FAQ in my signature  8)

Wellcome to avast wonderland  ;)
