Review

Avira AntiVir Personal from Avira GmbH protects you computer against viruses, malware, adware and spyware, unwanted programs and other dangers. There is also a paying version, Avira AntiVir Premium, which is available for purchase from Avira’s website.
Avira AntiVir Personal has a Control center for monitoring, administering and controlling the software; central configuration with a very user friendly and standard options and context sensitive help. Furthermore, it has a scanner (on demmand) which can be used according profiles and has configurable search methods for all known types of virus and malware.
It is fully integrated to the Windows Vista User Acount Control and lets user take actions that need administrative rights.
Simple and fast updates of the software, virus definitions, and search engine through Single File Update and incremental VDF updates via a webserver on the Internet.
The program includes a quarantine feature, so tha when the user comes across something he or she is not sure about, it can be set apart as prevention.. When the software detects something, it alerts the user and provides differente choices to take into account to deal with the problem.
Advantages
  • Renewed User Interface looks professional. For a free antivirus, it’s more than good.
Disadvantages
  • Sometimes it freezes and makes the PC very slow while trying to surf the web.

This is by far the best AntiiVirus program out on the internet free or paid.
When my computer crashed Avira was the only AntVirus program that found the viruses
and fixed my computer and it was free.

Norton, McCafee, AVG,Windows AV, none of theses paid programs found the virus on my comp.
Avira Did, So do yourself a favor and get this program. Avast is just as great a program and you can run Avira amd avast at the same time
with no conflicts on your computer.

Thanks Avira and Avast for your great "FREE PROGRAMS"
