I agree with a proviso -- Avast conflicts with lots of software. If you have no conflicts....it is the software of choice. It does not work if you are using Carbonite as a cloud backup.

AVG...well AVG was the anti-virus of choice...then they got very pushy about their "pay" version, it almost became malware. I used AVG for years then they were no longer happy with ad sales and decided to become the new McAfee...at that point, I bailed.
