This was my personal and honest experience with Avast. They were the first scareware pioneers, If you have used them as I did you would have noticed.
Infecting machines with malware intentionally? They did this and are still allowed to sell product?
This is BS. They never did that.
I did use it then and I never experienced that. I bet it was some unrelated coincidence. They would not do that.
Narrator: They did.
What malware are you referring to? I never had this issue as well. I'm not saying you shouldn't question them, but the only thing I didn't like was they forced advertisements to use the free version. They were still orders of magnitude better than other AV providers, especially what they were selling at Best Buy.
