For those of us who use an antivirus, they come in one of two flavours. Free, and paid. And as many of their users, as well as Softpedia can attest, they are just as good, if not better then their paid counterparts. As a person who tries to live off the freebies as much as he can, a good free protector is a life saver.

But there is a trade off for using some of the better ones, like Avast and Avira. They come with ads, which remind you that, they too, are trying to make a living. And that they’d like you to upgrade and pay for their antiviruses. AVG, Panda Cloud, and Microsoft Security Essentials doesn’t carry out advertisements in their programs, but as most of us can tout, AVG simply not ready for the big time anymore, missing viruses, trojans, and worms here and there. For those that don’t want a cloud scanner or want to be asked about Windows Updates (since that’s how MSE updates), it leaves us with two wholesome choices: Avast Free, or Avira AntiVir Personal. And while we’d rather you not block our ads, I’m going to show you how to block their ads.
