Still better than avast

No, Norton's the worse antivirus I've ever seen.
This is the one that's removed multiple files that I've had before saying they were harmful just because not that many people haven't used them.

Why so critical of Avast? I've used it for years, and it has served me well.

Just wondering.

Good question.
-Check my PC with Avast = 0 virus, so happy
-Check my PC with other antivirus ~ 8 trojans and other ♥♥♥♥


Also Avast delete some files from windows. This is not very good.
Also Avast dislike new games.

Avast is AntiVIRUS not AntiTROJAN

Avast do same things with new games. Just more ppl uses avast(cuz it's free...)

Strange, because I haven't seen that happen with avast yet.

Space engineers, you can find massive threads about it.

Add /Steam to exception...

Just MSE for the detection and anything else for advanced removal seems to work fine for me.
:/ It seems to find enough, but it's just no good trying to remove an actual virus.

But if you look up the virus name, there's always a removal tool somehwere.

depends on the naming format. Alot of AV companies are inconsistent, one naming a virus "keyloggen32.b" and another calling "LolAnotherSteamGuard.exegen.variant131382c"

Dont go thinking their all infections just cause the program says so as their is such a thing as a false positive.

This should give you a more objective view on what AV program is good to use.

It is always best to look at hard evidence vs people's opinions.
