Been using it for the last few years, its good, detects most viruses and dangers from the web, best of all avast is free and it even talks when it finds viruses. The built-in anti-spyware could do with a bit more improvement though. User interface is good too compared to some of the others available.

I have used Avast for 1 years on my older computer and it found spyware that Norton didn't find.

I am going to install it on my mom's computer this week, because AVAST is a great FREE antivirus program and so much more. Thanks! AVAST
