I'd personally narrow it down to between Trend Micro and F-Secure. Avira lacks any decent zero-day protection beyond cloud analysis and from what I've seen Panda's behavioural blocking isn't exactly top-tier.
Are you opposed to looking at other vendors or would you prefer to stick to just those four?
Thank you very much in advance
If I had to pick one I'd probably pick F-Secure myself.Yes, my question is just between those four AVs
Avira is the lightest and here are some rewards ( Avira PRO has an extra zero day component BEHAVIORAL BLOCKER )IMO neither one of the AV's you listed are really any good. Although i really don't have any experience with Panda.
Avira Pro = waste of money. Over priced. Only really good with signatures. Zero-day is hardly there. Stay with free version and add CF.
Trend Micro has been doing poorly in the malware hub. Supposedly business side is good.
F-Secure is also expensive but if money is not an issue than disregard the comment. Pretty light on the system but very few settings and no firewall. Can have a lot of False Positives.
All are just my opinion.

Don't rely too heavily on testing labs like AVC or AVT. Their results are only indicative of the exact samples they tested.Avira is the lightest and here are some rewards ( Avira PRO has an extra zero day component BEHAVIORAL BLOCKER )

I test also on my own and find Avira to be the best ( ahead to high and blocks every virus )Don't rely too heavily on testing labs like AVC or AVT. Their results are only indicative of the exact samples they tested.
It's the exact reason why their use of percentages is borderline stupid.
Probaly that is malware what u dont see in your daily life... I still recommend Avira and can give u a discount codeBut in my home tests they went well, I did with 188 samples of recent malware,
