After trying out MSE for the past year and getting infected I have returned to avast and actually purchased the pro version. It seems as light as MSE was and so far so good on my windows 7 64 bit machine.
Good luck and if you’ll have any questions - feel free to search/ask for answers here
Thank You!
I’m still within 6 months of trying Avast free protection.
Without reservation I’m impressed. Compared to AVG/Norton the system hit appears unnoticeable; compared to Avira I’m actually protected (repeated infections steered me towards Avast). I can’t remember why I moved away from McAfee (combination of loading time and clunky interface perhaps)…
But I wouldn’t pay £49 for full protection - to be honest, I wouldn’t pay £29 (the current ‘offer’) for full protection. £20, no problem - but at the moment Avast free protection is too good a product to feel the need to upgrade.
Tempted… but not quite. The only feature I’d like is the anti-hijacking feature… but I tend to surf clean!
Net Shield protects you from that.
Also Web Shield will scan the sites contents and will block them before anything is saved on the browser cache.
