Hello guys, meet you again in my blog. Today I write about internet security tool. Why I choose this topic because of many people can't find the appropriate tool to protect their computer. Now, I wanna talk about Avast Internet Security. I has been using this anti virus since 2011, a year ago. Previously, I had tried many anti viruses and got so many problem.
But after finding Avast, I never find again such problem. Actually there is a free version of Avast anti virus. But by buying the pro version you will have so many advantages and full protection. It works very fast detecting virus and malware. It has also unique protection named auto sandbox. This feature allows this program to automatically run any suspicious program inside the avast sandbox at the moment program is executed. This ensure that no damage can be done to your operating system or your files.
here the some reasons why do we use Avast:

Like the FREE ver. LOVE the Internet Security Ver.
By Terry Turner
I have used the Free version of Avast probably at least 8 - 10 years. Last year I decided to purchase Avast Internet Security for 3 users. I have never had a virus problem in all this time which I can attribute to the fact that I am a careful browser and the Avast protection. My subscription runs out next month and I plan to purchase Avast Internet Security again. Once Avast is set up it works quietly in the background and does not slow down my computer running Windows 7.
 
Best security so far

I purchased this to switch from Norton Internet Security because I did not think it was getting the job done. During install you get upgraded to version 7. Full system scan revealed threats that Norton did not identify. One feature that makes this program effective is the "Boot-Time Scan". This scan runs during startup, but prior to windows activation, so viruses and malware are not active during the scan and can be removed. Avast found malware during this scan and removed it as well.

200 Million Users Can't Be Wrong

I've been using combinations of the free and paid Avast programs for almost 7 years now, and they are great. At the time, they were the only company to offer a 64-bit antivirus package. Over the years I've worked with many other systems and been frustrated at either the complicated maintenance or the horrid performance drag (or the occasional overzealous clamp-down on my regular computer use). I also use Avast on my Windows Home Server now. They are the only company to which I reported a false positive and they took me seriously: they responded quickly and within 24 hours they had an update to take care of the issue.

I'm very pleased to say that this newer version of Avast Internet Security is really worth the money--at least to those of us who like to interact with our security tools. If all you're looking for is antivirus, then the free version may be just fine. But for three computers for a year, this suite of tools gives you very much more.

Avast updates itself automatically. It can be scheduled to run scans. It looks not only for viruses and worms, but keeps an eye out for malware/spyware. It watches the full variety of programs, from your browser and downloads to IM programs, mail clients like MS Outlook, and more. The interface is simple to walk through and it even lets you do one-click tasks, like "Gaming Mode" (that surpresses any messages for a period of time you specify), locking your network, or switching to different environments (Home, Work, Public, just like Windows 7). Last, although I let it alert me as much as it likes, if you find the interruptions annoying you can customize in which situations you want to hear from the program, and the rest of the time it'll stay silent.

All is not perfect for Avast. When you first start up, or the servers feel the need to push a critical update to the program, your machine may slow down or even freeze for as much as a minute while Avast is fixing things up. I've never had it stall me while I'm working or gaming, though: typically only on startup or when the machine is idle. Running an installation program or download may cause Avast to drop in on you and ask if you want to have it check out the program before you run it (you can check the "don't remind me for this program again" box if that annoys you). It will launch the program in a sandbox mode, watch what the program tries to do, and give you information to help you decide whether you want to allow that program to run.

I recently had my first need to contact support: while installing a rather kludgy piece of software, the software tried some poor tricks to punch holes in the firewall. It turns out the vendor had provided me with an incompatible download, but by then the damage was done: Avast got corrupted. I submitted a ticket and got an overseas office of very polite and professional people. These guys were courteous and helpful and we easily set up a remote session that let them look around at the system, walk through a clean removal and reinstall, and even tidy up after itself, removing the remote access tool. I was very grateful for this level of support.

I'd been meaning to write this review for a while. What reminded me about it was that I just got a prompt from avast asking if I'd like to know more information about the threats out there. After a click I got shown a pretty cool dashboard: a map of the threat presence across the globe, the most infected site in my country, and the ability to zoom in and see how many Avast users there are in particular areas--over 200 million worldwide. You might not care to do that (and you can tell Avast not to bother notifying you), but for me it was one extra touch that reminded me what a thorough program it's become over the years.
