I'm talking about FREE AVs. kaspersky now has a free version, but it is severely crippled, almost no options can be changed. eset is not free don't know about bitdefender.

But like Kaspersky, it is also severely "crippled" as well due to lack of important features, which are only available in paid ones. https://www.bitdefender.com/solutions/free.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 that's why I stick to avast/avg despite some issues they might have.they are by far the best free av solutions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjDiabolik Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 This newest version has changed an important things!!!! In Realtime scanning...... if you open a .RAR or an archive (for example a crack picked from this forum) and the scanner found a THREAD inside the archive it's DELETE completely the .rar opened and add it's to VIRUS TRASHCAN. It's a useless things and this feature it's can be changed!!! It's possible ?? If you do a scanner of your pc you can select to not scan the archive files......... ok it's very ok feature but currently you can't choose to NOT scan the archive in realtime. I have read the discussion about AV Free.... Avast it's a good alternative... it's not so much heavy for a OS and works good also in a NOT high-end PC config. The most important things it's not BREAK the b**ls to the users and suggest to him to pass to the premium version every 10 minutes whit ads notification or other similar things.

If you run the client (without the manager) you don't have to pay as its Corp software and it mainly run's with manager, (in most cases) but it can be run on its own without payment. Hope this makes things clearer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this makes things clearer I know, but what I talk is about certain extra features (but considered as optional) like sample submission in the unmanaged client can only be used with a license. Even without the license, you can still use it as usual anti-virus replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
