Keeping the computers safe from viruses should be a priority for every computer user. All kinds of nasty viruses and malware can infect your computer and compromise the sensitive information that you store on your hard disk. Happily, there are applications like Avira Free Antivirus that offer an efficient PC security solution and keep viruses away.

Avira Free Antivirus is one of the most popular anti-virus applications in the entire world. This dependable tool will keep you safe from viruses, adware, spyware, Trojans, rootkits, dialers and many other types of malware that may infect your computer. There are several things that I like about Avira Free Antivirus. Firstly, it offers a decent scanning speed, so you won’t have to wait around forever in order to find out if your computer is infected or not. Another plus is that it takes up fewer resources than most of the other anti-virus tools, thus allowing your other running applications to work smoothly. Furthermore, the program automatically scans your computer for incompatible software before actually installing itself, so it won’t cause any crashes.

With Avira Free Antivirus you will be able to schedule scans to be performed even when you’re away from the computer.

What I completely dislike about Avira Free Antivirus is the irritating window which constantly pops-up to let you know about other Avira products. This Avira Notifier will pop up in front of other windows, so it will quickly become a nuisance. more

This program is excellent, first my PC's speed so slow, 4-5 antivirus used, but not fixed my problem, than a friend's advice to choose Avira, and Avira catches 4 viruses in my PC and the problem is fixed. Advice you to download it.
