Thrax is correct! AVIRA is an awesome AV and IS program.

A little more interactive than some, but not much. Also catches the nasties really fast.

Hi syamprasad4a4

You may like to consider a layered security as no one Anti Virus application will detect 100% of possible infections, but with one Anti Virus application running from startup and one or two security applications available as (on demand) you will increase the odds of keeping your system clean. Do be careful not to have two or more Anti Virus applications running from startup as this may cause problems and is not advisable. Example - on one of my Computers I have Microsoft Security Essentials running from startup and Malwarebytes (free) as an on demand scanner with the idea what one may miss the other may detect. I have used layered security for many years and it works.

Avira (free version) does not scan emails. An AV that doesn't scan emails is about as good as a dog that won't bark to alert you that someone's around.

I quit using "free" version AV software years ago. It just doesn't fit the bill for most peoples needs. Plus I don't like the annoying popups.

One can get a free 3 month AVIRA Premium Security Suite license via email, then download the software from the website. Later on, they can just use a different email to extend the usage.

Just do a web search for the link to the 3 month free license key at Avira's website.

MSE doesn't try to force anything extra on you, and it's highly effective. You shouldn't have to pay a cent for quality anti-virus.

The young at School, Unemployed, Pensioners, Disabled - who have to survive on Benefit just to name a few who cant afford retail Anti Virus this is were Freeware Anti Virus and other applications come in (eg) CCLeaner one of the best Freeware applications ever built !, and i do like the new Avast Free its fetcher rich and looks

The OP asked for opinion on the best AV for Windows 7 X64, didn't he?

Thrax and I gave our opinions. Then someone mentioned issues with free Avira and now the thread has devolved into this and that, etc.

I'm outta here!
