Get Avast instead or buy somthing else. by: Rachel Rotton | 1 | 2007-07-12 |  | | | "good"
excellent software for virus by: faheem | 5 | 2007-07-10 |  | | | "Excellent"
I used to have AVG, but after reading the comments on AVG on freewarefiles I decided to change to avast!..
Ran a scan on the computer (boot time scan), Avast! picked up 5 viruses including trojans and adware.
AVG did not pick these up and neither did Norton..
Therefore everyone switch to avast!!

this is free and free is good by: sourabh | 5 | 2007-07-05 |  | | | "Read this before downloading!"
Why download AVG?
Avast! is better in many ways, including speed, updates, and virus detection. Look at the facts! Both Avast! and AVG are FREE FOR LIFE. AVG has a rating of 4.25 out of 5.00, and has 405 reviews. Avast! has a rating of 4.88 OUT OF 5.00, 4329 REVIEWS. Finding a rating of 1 on the AVG reviews is a simple task, but finding a rating of 1 in Avast! reviews is very hard.
For the best computer protection, download Avast! and not this AVG crapware by: gangstar | 1 | 2007-07-05 |  | | | "schmow are you mentally stable? AVAST is WAY better than AVG"
schmow arre you retarded "download avast will immediately cause you to be possessed by Satan"?!?! Schmow, it's either YOU are possessed by satan, YOU are a handicap, or YOU were dropped on the head as a child!
In fact, Avast is 10 times better than AVG in many ways. AVAST can detect viruses and trojans FAR better than AVG, and AVAST has way faster scan times, and quicker updates than AVG. (when a new virus is found, almost instantly AVAST! is updated, while AVG takes longer to update when new threats are present. So if you want to really protect your computer, download AVAST! (It has newer version, and is VISTA compatible, but freewarefiles hasn't updated those features, so go to www.avast.com to download the best FREE antivirus EVER,AVAST! by: schmow is dumb | 1 | 2007-07-04 |  | | | "AVAST is demon-ware"
Do NOT install AVAST! Doing so will immediately cause you to be possessed by Satan! This is NO joke. I have seen proof and know this to be true. Everyone you know will shun you and turn away from you! DO NOT INSTALL it! It is
bad and evil!! AVG is from God. by: Schmow | 5 | 2007-07-03 |  | | | "AVG is crapware"
holy crap!!! wow i looked at the reviews and was 100% sure not to download AVG. I took the advice from many people and downloaded AVAST! And it works excellent! by: | 1 | 2007-07-03 |  | | |
