Avast is a very good when compared to norton antivirus.

The Best part of Avast! is it's RTP[Real Time Protraction] system. It means you don't have to scan every app or game before running them in your computer. Just download and play. Avast! will scan the software in it's execution and if something is wrong found it will Immediately stop the software before it's installation in your PC.

It also has some Extra features, like:-

1. AutoSandbox, that allows you to run suspicious programs into a protected environment.

5. SafeZone for more secure online shopping and banking.

Answer 4

although I do not use both this antivirus, but I think better than avast NORTON, because my friends said that avast is very dangerous if not good to use I do not know how dangerous I just heard is not sure now if it was true.

Answer 5

Absolutly norton. :) i have myself f-secure, which is one of the best, but i tried norton and was awesome before i changed. Norton is cheap tp, and worth the money.

Answer 6

I would suggest both are good, but keeping in mind the requirement for yourself. I would apply Norton, if you want everything, but the system will go slow more than a tortoise. Avast though there is a lite version, has its backlogs, like it cannot detect all the malwares & horses.

However, I would still suggest go for ESET Nod 32, along with Malware Byte AntiMalware Bytes.

Hope this helps!

Cheers! :)

I have 2 computers going all the time on 1 i use SUPERAntiSpyware, never had any problems, I got a virus on my other one. I am putting it on both of them. Its great!

Answer 8

Norton is a load of garbage like most antiviruses that are commercial base, they slow your system down, take control of your files and create headaches and error messages then fail significantly in preventing viruses from getting through, Norton is actually like a virus itself, don't believe what people say about these antiviruses, they just haven't got a clue as to what trouble lies ahead for them, especially with hackers, just stick with the free bases systems like malewarebytes avast etc, there about the best you can get in the way of protection without headaches, make sure though you disable the webrep in avast it has been known to slow down the internet speed in over protection mode, something that Norton does without protecting your system.

Answer 9

I highly recommend avast anti-virus for the following reasons:

1)Multiple language support 2)Really fast scanning process 3)Does not slow down the system 4)Good user interface 5)Silent operations

Answer 10

I vote avast anti-virus, just my personal choice.
