Avira or Avg antivirus?would anyone tell me?security



According to av-comparatives.org Avira score really high on the detection rate but detects a high level of false alarms.

AVG score pretty well, but since av-comparatives.org tested the AVG Anti-malware (antivirus and antspyware combine), I'm not exactly sure of the outcome for just the antivirus but if you have both AVG Antivirus and AVG Antispyware (both separate and free) you'll have a very solid protection.

Both AVG and Avira scored Advance+ on the last on-demand test but Avira scored only Standard while AVG scored Advance on the retrospective test because of the false alarms that Avira detected. If it wasn't for the false alarms, Avira would had defiantly scored Advance or higher.



For a simple easy antivirus, I would recommend AVG Antivirus Free, if you do get AVG Antivirus, get AVG Antispyware for more protection (again the antispyware is free as well).



If you want to try a more advance Antivirus with a stronger detection rate, try Avira.



Another free antivirus that you might consider is Avast! Antivirus Home Edition. It's free and also scored Advance on both On-Demand and retrospective test (not Advance+) but you'll have to register for a license key once a year (the key is free and you can re-register for antoher key for free too).
