Avast Internet Security, THE BEST

Avast has always been great in protecting me from BAD web sites and finding files that might be infected. Sometimes the VPN gets me frustrated, but that's because some web pages do NOT recognize the extra security. I have to suspend VPN to conduct some of my business. But the alternative is to be vulnerable to dark hackers that can "latch onto" my IP and follow back to my network. I trust Avast Internet Security SOOO much more than other companies. Please, please, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK....

Garbage

Garbage. More like a virus than anti-virus. They try to scare you into buying it with popups like "you are being watched". It's as bad as an adware. Also not to mention its ability to defend against viruses is pretty mediocre.

Why are there ads?

Ads on a product for a product that I have already purchased are completely unnecessary. Why do you think this is okay? If I have the product installed on my computer with a valid ID, then your ads are meaningless. Please do something about this soon.

Awful service

Awful service. I cancelled a yearly membership on the 5th July and they are stalling and stalling making sure enough time passes to avoid giving me a refund. I already have another provider and they seem unwilling to solve any problem. They keep on sending me emails from different people asking the same questions over and over again without the slightest concern or speedy response. You better use MC Affe instead, they're service is a lot better!!

Best antivirus software PERIOD

Best antivirus software available for the following reasons:
(1) It remains abreast of the latest concerns in every
notable respect.
(2) ONLY AV software that allows you to scan before
you invoke - download whatever you like, just
scan the file(s) first with confidence.

Avast: My Appreciation for a Job Continuously Well Done

Avast as done a great job in keeping my online experience safe and private. I haven't had a computer virus since starting with Avast many years ago. They offer to scan my thumb drives each time I use one. And of course they scan my computer for malware. I use their Ultimate product, and I'm confident their VPN has done a good job in keeping me anonymized and protected. I also use their browser exclusively. Their Bank Mode is wonderful in protecting my personal financial transactions.

Avast's products are outstanding.

After a few years of using Avast products, my computer and phone have had zero problems with viruses, malware, junk files, or outdated drivers. I am thoroughly impressed by Avast's products and would highly recommend them to anyone with a computer or smart phone.

There was constant advertisements from the program to upgrade for more features. Even when turning off the notifications in app, the advertisements still came but were slightly reduced. The diver updater updated a driver which made my computer crash. Had to reinstall windows to fix the issue.
