Speedy, what’s the purpose of advertising a paid version of a concurrent here in Avast forums?

Good question.
I use the FREE firewall that comes with Windows 10. It’s been there since Windows 7 and just works. :slight_smile:

Because there are many that already use it with avast free - I have been using it for even longer than avast and I’ve had that for over eleven years - there is no firewall in avast free.

Many, many years ago in a promotion I bought a lifetime license for the cost of the annual renewal. So for me it is now essentially free. I also purchased a lifetime license a few years ago in another promotion for my win7 system.

Avast could learn something from this, what about a lifetime paid option for a no advert supported avast version. Call it what you like avast home pro, etc. (something we mentioned many years ago) for those who would be prepared to make a contribution (being avast free users) but not an annual renewal. This suggestion was however, declined.

Sorry, but this is, for sure, not a reason for posting here.
Discussing features and comparisons is another thing than promoting.

Lisandro when my AIS license expired and I will be going back to Avast Free and my Outpost Pro FW lifetime license, and I’m entitle to informed to all the Outpost Pro FW users who carry their liftetime license just like David and to let them know of the latest version. This is why this is call the UPDATES section.

Either way you can kiss my

Wow, is that really a nice way to talk to an Avast Employee and a forum member who’s been here since before you were born… :cry:

I somehow doubt that those using the avast free version are going to suddenly buy AIS or Premium in preference to their current firewall whatever that is. I also don’t feel that AIS or Premium users are suddenly going to purchase another firewall. So it is essentially information for those already using it.

What we are seeing is prolonging the debate and keeping the subject alive, letting it drop down the chronological order would soon have it laid to rest.

Not here in Avast forums.

Lisandro@ I think if Avast supplied a standalone firewall option it might be another matter, Avast free users have the right to use and be notified about third party firewalls imo and not really any different to us promoting Malwarebytes here on the Avast forums as well.

MBAM has a free version. The posted firewall is paid only. There is not a standalone, free firewall from Agnitum.

Nice from you.

As far as I’m aware there is still a free version, but it won’t be the latest version.
