EVERY computer needs to have at least one good antivirus program. One decent option is Avira Personal Edition Classic (Avira) – a free antivirus application that is free for personal use.
It is a comprehensive and easy-to-use application that is designed to protect home users from threats like viruses, malware, adware and spyware.
It does most of the common antivirus tasks such as disk scanning, automatic virus definition scanning and rootkit removal.
Avira has a nice tabbed interface that keeps everything neat and in working order.

With the free personal edition, you get the basic computer scanning, virus quarantine features and update scheduler that you expect to get from any antivirus program.
We like how Avira constantly scans our computer for malicious programs while keeping a vigilant eye out for any suspicious activity conducted by programs in the system.
There is even scheduler function, which can be set to scan the computer at regular time intervals.
Avira also frequently updates its virus signatures to ensure up-to-date protection each time you log on. We also liked how Avira does not hog resources when it conducts real-time scanning of files.
Just in case if you do permit certain programs to conduct actions like accessing the Internet, you can set Avira to make exceptions.
In the event of a virus attack, Avira will give you the option to delete, block, repair or quarantine suspected files and programs.
The sole drawback to using Avira is the constant daily reminders to upgrade to the professional premium edition.
Still, the imbedded advertisement is a small price to pay for a great antivirus software if you are on a tight budget.
