The best free antivirus

There are many excellent antivirus software. However, all of those antivirus software must be have some cons. Now, I will discuss about the pros and the cons of 4 excellent antivirus.

1. AVIRA personal edition. This antivirus is my favourite and one of the lighest antivirus in the world. It has an excellent detection rate and has a simple GUI. However, some of the pros are: does not include anti-spyware, but when I checked in its official website it says that the latest AVIRA personal edition includes a standard anti-spyware. However, another good thing that I liek from AVIRA is the automatic removable media scan. All of you can try to plug in a flashdisk that full of virus in a PC that is AVIRA installed. Withing 1 minute there will be a notification that there are some viruses in the flashdisk.

2. AVAST home edition. This is also an excellent antivirus. It also has a high detection rate but still lower than AVIRA's. However, it has many pros such as anti-spyware, IM scanning, web shield, etc. This is also one of the best choices of free antivirus that you can use.

3. AVG free edition. This free antivirus includes all of AVAST's pros, but AVAST is overall better than AVG. AVG's detection rate is less than AVAST's and AVIRA's. However, many many people in the world use this. But, many people in the world say that AVG is bad, it uses too much system resources. I have tried the AVG 9.0 free edition. The GUI is really really simple, the 8.5 version has a better GUI. However, AVG still has lots and lots of fans in this world.

4. Panda Cloud Antivirus. This free antivirus is an excellent and new antivirus that is booming right now. The good thing of this software is the update is automatic. The editor of this sotware sends the virus definition every seconds. The official group finds and make the virus definition in every minutes. You can see the progress in the official website. This program also has a really excellent detection, many people say that the detection rate is above AVIRA's detection rate. However, the GUI is simple and small, however this software cannot be paired with another software, I've tried paired Panda cloud antivirus and windows defender and my laptop worked really slow and many times freezed.


Overall, I choose AVIRA as the best free antivirus, and right now I am using it.

But, it is up to you want to choose which one! All of free antivirus above are excellent to use. ^^
