Antivirus

Avast

Avast: 5.0 Doesn\'t quite fill the bill on replacing AVG.  It scans the full system more thoroughly and faster, but still misses viruses that AVG finds, and reacts slower when they both see one.  It  scans thousands of more files, including inside archives that AVG ignores or overlooks, but as soon as Avasts scans a file that is infected, AVG jumps on it, even if Avast thinks its clean.  Avast scans the thousands faster than AVG, but as indicated, is slower to react, and often misses files that AVG catches.
