I really like avast! but I have a free keycode for Webroot from Broncos (for 6 months). I removed avast! and installed Webroot, but I don't know if Webroot is a better AV than avast!. If you were in my shoes what would you choose, avast! or Webroot?

Thanks guys!
Neither - you do not just need them.

Try Webroot (standalone) for 6 months and see how it goes. No need multiple layers of the same protection, there are no benefits.

Why Qihoo wants to uninstall Shadow Defender before I can continue its installation?

While it can help prevent some things, common sense doesn't always operate at full efficiency at certain times of the day. For example: clever social engineering, real-life phishing scams, or low awareness.

People should just think smart then.

That's too easy. C'mon. PM me if you know the answer, I got an Umbra IS 1976 license key good for another year (they just don't make 'em like they used to).

It's nothing to do with AdBlock, actually there is no one single correct answer.
