Again, I'm going to point out that Avast, and many other "free" antivirus are actually reading all your emails, and keeping track of every website you visit and everything you do there.

They are literally performing man-in-the-middle attacks by installing root certificates on your system and viewing all your encrypted traffic.
Several companies are doing this. I would have to look to find the list, but do some research before you install any free Antivirus.

I do not have any free antivirus but going to check my computer certificates now.

For those who want to do the same.

You can use Certificate Manager to see details about your certificates, modify them, delete them, or request new ones.

Open Certificate Manager by clicking the Start button , typing certmgr.msc into the Search box, and then pressing ENTER.‌   If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

Thanks Shiroslullaby for the information.

I use AVG, its pretty good, been using it for the past 3 years, and i have had no problems so far.

Just uppgraded it to the latest 2016 version it works perfectly now, much faster than the 2015 version and much more comfortable to use.

In my opinion its the best internet security software there is.

[npredtorch]

I'm using malwarebytes a premium one. Should i use avg instead? I've seen many bitcointalk users use avg , is it really good?
Been a malwarebytes user for about a year now, i use it at home and in office. I've tried avira and norton, but i think i didn't prefer that two.

[yubsep]

Before i was using #Avast.. Now i am using #Webroot.. It's perfect for me...

[hoian0809]

I use Bit Defender, but that is just part of my security plan which also includes patch management, web protection and cloud backup. It is a paid managed security subscription.

[C00LC0lN]

I prefer Kaspersky, it detects most of the virus and malwares.

[minionsgelato]

i am using Avast Anti-virus to protect my device
because it's free, trusted and more easy to use

[MONKEYJUNK]

I would rather use anti-virus of operations default from my laptop Microsoft Security Essentials.                                                                                                                                           

[Kray]

I use Microsoft Security Essentials, simple, easy, uptodate, fast and free

[AioFox]

I use Microsoft Security Essentials, simple, easy, uptodate, fast and free

It never let me down

[jzmark]

im eset user, i dont know exactly what the advantages of this AV,
i get this software from my friend

[Foex]

Kaspersky Internet Security. No issues. Never let me down...Recommended

[redviper]

clamav (clamtk) in combination with lynis, rkhunter and plenty of common sense

[SparkyU]

I don't use one, don't really have a need for it.  I use a sandboxed web browser, which is the main entry point of most viruses, and I test sandbox/vm suspicious files.   I haven't had a virus on my pc in years.

[Dalarosa]

at moment i am not using an antvirus
