well as far as i have noticed
the Virus signatures are
updated regularly
that too silently
and the signatures are very light so wont take much bandwidth

avast or avg are the finest anti-virus progs around ! they r updated regularly, and have a high detection rate and international standing.

why pay for an anti-virus if sonething like avast is available freely. dont think or ask any more questions; just go ahead and install it. you will be satisfied with it !
