I used to use Zonalarm. Then it turned into an ugly monster that had only one mission, make your computer slow down to a craw. I'll bet Avast will do the same think having turned into bloated malware. Now using an other antivirus.

Avast is the very definition of Malware!
You can "TRY" to block Avast in your firewall if you do not trust it (using Glasswire), but Avast will ignore your attempt and open another backdoor through the firewall on the very next boot
Crashing and closing of Avast or Not loading after bootup are recurring problems
I wrongly gave StopUpdates10 a bad review 2 weeks ago when the Real problem was Avast!
Should be listed in downloads under "Buggy Spyware and Malware for FREE"

What a load of crap, adware at every turn, and just to think, along with Ad Aware, and SpyBot, Avast! was at one time a pioneer in alternative (meaning free) AV. Now it's all about the money.

Had a problem installing this on my windows 10 system, even after granting it elevated firewall permission, the avast service froze, and the avast repair module was useless.

I can find no fault with Avast. I am running Win10 and it has performed perfectly. The logo in the tray flashes when it is scanning, checks Email scans at boot, web pages, I like it better than the stock Win Defender.

Pros: Many people across the globe prefer Google Chrome for browsing the web for its speed and user-friendly features.
Cons: However, no matter how efficient this application is, it is still susceptible to various technical issues. In some cases, Gmail won’t load in Chrome on Windows 10. If this happens to you, do not worry because it is quite a common issue.
Bottom Line: Well, here are various reasons behind this, and we have discussed them along with the solutions. just follow and apply, whenever, if any issue comes to face then you can connect with the Gmail team via Gmail Bellen.

Pros: Was good while it lasted, as in before the annoying popups.
Cons: It's almost has become trial ware. At the moment it's in its adware form. I'm sure it will stop being free.It even would hijack the browser home page. Don't know if it still does simply because I don't use the "extras".
Bottom Line: I used to use Zonalarm. Then it turned into an ugly monster that had only one mission, make your computer slow down to a craw. I'll bet Avast will do the same think having turned into bloated malware. Now using an other antivirus.

Pros: Can easily recommend this to my enemies!
Cons: Cannot recommend to friends!
Forces a backdoor through firewall on every boot
Buggy as hell

Pros: Installs easy enough, when it works it seems efficient enough.
Cons: Bloated, works for a while then starts to misbehave, service not running, shields turned off, restarting it works for a bit then starts all over again.
Bottom Line: Have tried it on several occasions, same story works for a bit then screws up. No more trials, end of story.

This is the top rated free AV according to PC Magazine.
Correction:
The actual version of this newly released program today is 12.1.2276 not 72 as it is mentioned here.

previously i am used Avast and I messed up with so many issues in my PC. It started suspecting normal files as virus. So i uninstalled avast and went to Comodo Free Antivirus and it seems to be good.
