Call me paranoid, but why the poll?

Is it for personal information?

For publication?

For Avast?

I don't mind supplying the info you request, just asking why?  Your post doesn't really inform me why you have started this poll.

Hum....the poll results are a bit puzzling.  It appears that for more than a year, noone tried Avast!
Then, 3 months ago, we got a rush on Avast Home.

I guess Avast was like a sleeping Giant who we helped awaken.   ;D

The poll thusfar is surely not indicative of the Avast user habits.  
Since only 4 people took poll, we will have to wait awhile longer to get the "picture".   :P

With this post, only 10 have taken the poll. Not very good results will come from this poll if more do not take it. I am guessing that many more have used it for more than a year.

And really ... how satisfied with avast are each of us is more important than how long each of us has used avast!    :)

Your taking a pole and according to your answers, this pole is being taken for NO reason.
Why don't you want to answer inthewildteam's question and least post the reason for this pole?

Since there's already a choice for "over 2 years", I'm not sure why there's also one for "always", or what the latter's supposed to mean.

Maybe you used avast when learning computer while still in mother's womb?  ;) ;D

He meant that you used only avast! antivirus and nothing else.
Something like entering the world of antiviruses with avast! instead of Norton :P

Well, I definitely fit into this category (using avast! as the only antivirus since 1988)  ;D ;D ;D

Being somewhat of a statistician, the poll is indicating that once a person starts using Avast, they stay with the program.

More than 60% of users are now considered "long term".

A poll would be nice to show "what AV" user's had installed prior to Avast.

I personally have used half a dozen anti-virus programs before discovering Avast.  I would not switch to another freeware or payware.  I have both Avast Home and Pro running on 3 computers and they have been well protected.

 ;D

adam, noted the results so far

I still haven't heard from you about the reasons for the post.

As I said earlier, what do you want to do with this information, the reason for the poll would be nice. Also what you intend to do with the results.

Edit

apart from the inclusion of two smilies and my original reply in your quote
