Hi all, I want to change 360IS for another free product because 360 give me too much FP.

I don't like Avast, and i want to now the better option between the 3 products in the title.

All on Windows 8.1

Free solutions discarted:
360IS & 360 TS: to much FP.
Comodo: slowdown my computer on w8.1, i don't know why, because works great on w7.
Avast!: i dont like it.
AVG: i don't trust it.
Immunet: i like it as companion, not as main AV.

from long term experience, Avast was and still is one of the best free anti virus on the market today and yesterday. as for tomorrow who knows. you have no other solid free option. yep qihoo is better but still new to say for the long term.
I'm not Avast user.

Panda free antivirus 2015 is a much better choice than handicapped Avira Free which lacks web scanning. Paid version, Avira Pro 2015 is a solid performer though. Avoid free version at any cost.

When it comes to worms, Avira performs better by stopping these malwares based on heuristics which Panda can't even detect.

after testing both I would avoid both.
