Free Antivirus for Your Computer

Free Antivirus For Your Computer.


Avast is a free anti-virus that I got after I was done with McAfee I have Avast 5.0 which is the new free version which keeps your computer and files free from viruses. So I did a review on Avast because it ‘s free and I think it’s better then McAfee and takes up less space on your computer.

Setup:

So when I downloaded and installed the free Avast anti-virus it took no time at all I did find out that once you install this it only works for 60 days unless you register for a free license key by e-mail then it good for one year until you need to re-register it again. After I installed I had to reboot my computer and Avast performs a boot level anti-virus scan looking for any kind of viruses that might load with the operating system.


Interface:

The interface is pretty good looking comes in orange and black when you launch Avast it will do a memory and start up scan of you system. You will also encounter a helpful screen explaining how to use the interface.


Features:
Features included automatic updates, P2P shield, file system shield, mail shield, web shield, network shield, behavior shield and IM shield.


Performance:
did a full system scan of my computer once it was done installing and I have to say it took some time to finish but that on because I have a lot of things on my computer so based on how much stuff is on your computer is how long it will take to finish. But other than that it seem to get the job done.

Support:

There is a comprehensive in-program help menu. There are also robust technical support forums, free e-mail support, and international telephone support, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central European Time.

Conclusion:

My conclusion is that this free anti-virus is a lot better than the last anti-virus I had. (McAfee) The best part is that it’s free it’s not hard to set up and it dose not take up a lot of space. If you need anti-virus and don’t have the money to buy it then get avast anti-virus. Click To Download
