Avira AntiVir Personal

Good evening,

A question that has been asked many times in this forum:

Yes, Avira is a good antivirus, but is it the best? Sorry, I don't have the qualifications to answer that:

A little reading:
https://sebsauvage.net/rhaa/index.php?2009/03/30/12/47/39-les-antivirus-gratuits-sont-bons

And yes, the best antivirus you can find is yourself by avoiding dangerous sites.

Good continuation

Philippe

Yes, Avira is among the best, but what is the best?

Avira has a problem, the update takes an eternity, I need 120 hours

the download speed is 0.1 KB.

Good evening,

https://forums.commentcamarche.net/forum/affich-14791136-avira-antivir-personnal#1

there are no better answers.

I'll tell you the best for me is AVAST and in return, you're going to receive a triad of responses saying definitely not, it's a sieve ????

Some say the best: (among the free ones)

AVIRA
AVG
AVAST
ETC..........................

For your update, check out the forum today, so not too much to look for, lots of answers on Avira updates. If you can't find it, just let me know ;-)

Electrician, I left you a message in PM with Vincent.
