[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 820368, member: 32260"] Every personal experience with Avast (or another AV) is probably true and there will be always people with a bad experience and others with a stellar experience. This follows from the simple statistics because computer infections are pretty much random. It is hard to see something close to the truth about Avast infections in the home environment, even after comparing all Avast related posts on MT forum.:( The most popular AVs will always be underrated by guys who professionally repair infected Windows. People who installed not so popular AV, are also not so frequent clients, even when the AV is worse than Avast.:emoji_thinking: If one believes in "wisdom of crowds", then "wisdom of MT crowd" is that Avast free does not differ much from the best free AVs.:giggle:(y) [/QUOTE]
