So, in my previous thread, MT seemed to prefer avast over comodo, so I decided to compare it to another program, 360 total security. As always, post why you prefer one over the other.

360 TS has a good behavior protection but some FPs.
360 TS win against Avast in my opinion.

In general terms, be greater than Avast 360TS, however.
360TS is not 100% finished, and my own experience:
Many false positives, a little heavy on certain systems, depending on the hardware, problem (for me severe) of Avira and Bitdefender engines do not update. If you are not familiar with English, or install, because it has no translation into other languages. But it has a great detection (cloud) is lightweight and easy for me to tinker, good proactive defense.
Avast used for many years, has a good generic detection, more than 200 million users, is light in modified settings has a great proactive defense.
Because of these problems I had with Qihoo, vote for Avast!

Avast: Light on System +
Good Web Protection +
Good Detection +

360 TS: Light on System (my opinion) +
Excellent Detection +
Good Behavior Protection +

Avast Web Protection is better, but I go with the 360 TS, excellent detection, good proactive defense and Avira or Bitdefender engines if you need.

as per avast if you know how to deal with or you can live with hardened mode then avast is great. that's all my opinion, because when i installed qohioo ts it takes 24 hours to download bidfender and avira as well as their respective signature after that it never update, when i scan a folder i never detected malware files like other posting here, so moral of the story do not ask others opinion check yourself which is working fully and fine in your system use it and trust it, do not happy click on every on the webpage when you are surfing that's it bye.
it's my opinion not against anybody or any product. sorry.

Qihoo 360 INTERNET SECURITY (my opinion)
- Very stable
- Same detection with Total Security even if Total Security has Avira engine enabled.
- More Themes
- Stable frequent updates
- Less Memory (for pcs with not enough memory installed)

I'd say 360 TS! There's no need for an explanation.

Why is this thread even made?
Why compare a antivirus with multiple engines against one engine?

Maybe he wants to decide which is best for him...
I prefer 360TS. More powerful, no annoying ads.

Of course one with multiple engines will have a better detection rate, but more false positives.
The one with 1 engine would have good detection & less false positives.

Both are good, but I personally prefer TS.
Avast
- Good Detection
- One Engine
- Ads
- Slow Scan
- Better Detection
- More False Positives
- No Ads
- Faster Scans
- Light on System
- Better Interface

My vote goes to 360TS - it offers more complex protection and does not show any annoying ads

Qihoo TS was draining my cpu usage 7-50% all time, so i ditch it. Better prefer light one then resource hogging AV. Avast with hardened mode enabled will give better protection.

Ouw yeah..another thread vs and vs again
Regarding which one is better I think both are good and had pros and cons, with 360 Ts you get better detection, better proactive defense and you got behaviour protection but you also got more false positives with it (since it's using more than one engine) and probably it's heavier than Avast as well. With Avast you get web protection, good detection and more stable and light, but sometime you'll see ads on it
So if "Detection" is more important to you then you could pick 360 TS, as for me...I'd vote for avast for lightness, stable and compatibility
