You beat me for my opinion avira web guard i didnt install it at the start them i later installed it to see how it works..

I am paranoid!i choose the secure start...and with keeping everything else disabled avira slowed down the startup terribly..screen remained black for atleast 10 to 15 seconds after starting windows process in win7
But you know that every system is different from the other and every system is unique...There is no 100% that this must happen for all other system too..I have done some testing.

In my opinion
if you want a paid product with good detection , decent web blocker , light on system and good for gaming than i would recommend ESET
if you want a free product then you should either try avast or comodo
if you want to maybe increase your protection you can try avast with comodo firewall (you can find lot of guides on how to set them both to work)

I would recommend Avira or Avast out of the three you had mentioned. Personally, I would recommend Panda Cloud + MBAM Pro if you want very light, unobtrusive, and secure setup. MBAM Pro is a one buy, lifetime license so it is indeed an awesome deal!

Additional protection (to suggested config): Norton DNS, ESET Online scanner, and/or Hitman Pro

Or you can try Umbra's super defensive setup.

I would Say try them all...and choose what works for you

Try avast/free/paid

try avira/free/paid

try avg/free/paid

try eset


then choose what's best for you.

Just curious, did you experience slow downs with Avira and Comodo Firewall installed, or just Avira 2012.

Earth Don't you think that its a repeat of same thing with same unbiased/biased view about avast and avira.
Its Non-sense to talk about anything to a person who don't want to understand or believe what the society/community view.
P.S. I myself is using both avast is and avira is on my two computers and I have no complain on either,both doing their job well with no slowdown.

Don't take it personally as I have nothing against you and I respect all members and specially people like you who are very friendly with other members.
My point of view is only that we should not criticize product "A" because we like product "B"

So i think it would be better if you explain the kind of user you are !!

i'm a gamer and like surfs...
i'm using avast now

You can try the Norton + Comodo Firewall but if you want free protection install AVG/AVAST.

Free AV's were available always on the corner and they have pros and cons for it. It depends which product you would like to choose.

If you want more features/ components with better detection capabilities then go for AVG or Avast (likely Avast does have more features added on their product)

Or if you want a concentrated fully detection rates then Avira Free would design for it.
