Years ago, a free antivirus was often a synonym of poor protection. Nowadays,
thanks to programs like *Avira AntiVir Personal*, this perception of *free
antivirus* has improved a lot. Avira AntiVir Personal is the free – for
personal use – version of *Avira Antivir Premium*; this means there are a
few advanced features unavailable, like the virus filter for email or for web
browsing, but the program is as powerful and efficient as its big brother.
Avira AntiVir Personal installs in a few seconds and starts protecting your
system in real time right away. It includes all the tools and options you
would expect from an antivirus these days, such as different types of scan,
support for scheduling, automatic updates, and a quarantine area for
suspicious files. On the downside, Avira AntiVir Personal is let down by a
somewhat rough interface that feels like it was designed ten years ago and
never restyled: simple to use, but too plain. *Looking for an efficient,
uncomplicated antivirus tool? Avira AntiVir Personal may be a good
choice.*Download *Avira AntiVir Personal 10.0.0.611* in Softonic
