App Review Avira Free Prevention Test (MrITReviews)

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

Didn't know about the Ask as far as I can remember, but to me Ask is some sot so powerful search engine.

Glad you like it by the way :)

Liking these videos :)
I would though suggest cleaning temp files (Ccleaner) in the videos before running result scans.
MBAM and Hitman always pick up temp file remnants of any malware and results sometimes looks worse than what they really are.

Ahh, so you mean by that is if Avira picked something up and deleted it and what not, and MBAM pick it up that's in the temp?

That's very probable, if you clean any temporary files prior to running system scan it removes them giving you a clearer picture when you run your final scans of what real infections remain.

I know that AV's were originally not expected to find Trojans and Rootkits, but now that they do, Avira failed big time; makes me feel even better about my TF with Sandboxie config.

Nice review McLovin, but the music was way to slow and I don't prefer to hear singing during a review--only music less the voice. haha..... Your call though.

Not bad for a descendent of British exiles. lol

Nice review buddy.

I hope that catches on. If it is true all of the time, things could get very deceiving as far as what is left behind.

I have fixed that as you might of found out in the other videos.
