*Updated 14 June 2010* Introducing an even better solution!

Arguably the most complete Free antivirus solution on the market. Avast has once again proved itself with high satisfaction ratings received from its users.

Upon installing the antivirus, it updates itself with latest virus definition without prompting. All the settings could be left untouched for solid security protection for regular users. 

Avast's antivirus, antispyware, and heuristics engines form a security core that also includes real-time 'shields' such as..

  • File Shield
  • Mail Shield
  • Web Shield
  • P2P Shield
  • IM Shield
  • Network Shield
  • Behavior Shield

There's also a Silent Gaming Mode which appeals to gamers such as myself. Just turn on Silent Gaming and there will be no messages/pop ups when you're playing a computer game.
