[SECURITY] AntiVirus Test Results - Comments Page 2

Boy, I have been looking over the top "winners", in this AV Tests. Looking over prices, the amount of coverage and which seemed to be the easiest to handle.

I think I am going with Avast Pro. It doesn't have a Firewall, I don't need one. My Wi-Fi Router has an excellent hardware Firewall and protects extremely well. As for Anti-Spam, most email servers cover that now. Right now, I am using Thunderbird and Anti-Spam is covered.

I do use Avast Mobile Security and love it. It is simple for me to use and protects my Android device. The annual price is good for my fixed income, too.

I have been using Avast Internet Security for the past 2 1/2 years. My subscription is coming due in August 2016. After looking over all of the competitors, I think, I will be staying with Avast and their Pro version.

Bottom line, it is a product that I have been using for over 10 years, I really like and I am very comfortable using it. It's funny how we fight change, isn't it? :)

I am a paid Webroot user. I have used the paid versions of McAfee,Norton, and BitDefender in the past and given up on each of them for various reasons, including the large footprint taken up by McAfee and Norton.

In the case of BitDefender, I ended up unable to update my paid package, either automatically or manually and was never able to resolve it. Just in time I read an article here about Webroot, and I have been very happy with it ever since.

I have used Comodo for sometime now and have vacillated between them and Emsisoft. I have followed many of the tests seen online and in the youtube videos and think that these are under reported, perhaps because they don't submit their stuff to all of the many testing companies. The ones that are always mentioned are just that, always mentioned but they may not always be the best. I have seen Comodo and Emsisoft rate higher than some of those "listed" companies.
