Hello would you help me with my choise Avira Classic or Avast Proffesional?

I would like to choose a free anti virus for my laptop,because I'm tired of buying programs and getting problems.

Last I was with Mcafee Total protection and I got a lot of problems.

Please help

Hello would you help me with my choise Avira Classic or Avast Proffesional?antivirus programs

It's so close it's a virtual toss-up. On one hand Avira *does* have the best detection rates of the free antivirus', but on the other hand Avast detection rates aren't that far behind, and Avast scans your email and can do a boot-time scan, which Avira can't. Then again Avira can be *scheduled* to do a scan and Avast can't. But in my own personal experience, I have several times tried Avira and have had auto update problems with it every time. This doesn't happen to a lot of people, but it does happen enough that it is far from rare. So I personally use and recommend Avast.

(I'm glad you didn't bother asking about the newb-toy, AVG, with its terrible detection rates; although I'm sure someone will advise it anyway ;-) )

Edit: My answer applies to the free versions of Avira and Avast. I didn't notice the "Professional" in your question.

Avast! Pro is NOT free. Avast! Home is free for personal use. Given the choice of Avast or Avira, I recommend Avira for a much higher detection rate and faster scanning. Avast! is useful if you're using a local email client, such as Outlook Express or Outlook, as Avast plugs in to scan inbound and outbound messages.
