The results of the July 2016 Whole Product Dynamic Real-World Protection Test from AV-Comparatives are in, and we’re excited to spread the word.

In describing its Real-World Protection Test, AV-Comparatives states the following on its website:

“Our Real-World Protection Test is currently the most comprehensive and complex test available, using a large number of test cases. This year, we are running this test under Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit SP1 with up-to-date third-party software (such as Adobe Flash, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Java, etc.).“

Forget TV ads – clean your slow PC with a product you can trust

Avast_Cleanup_Housekeeping Get rid of junk you didn’t know you had, with our most advanced cleaning tool yet.

Many of us use the same laptop for multiple purposes. If you’re like me, you watch Netflix movies, answer business emails, and do personal banking on the same machine. It’s no surprise that it eventually gets sluggish with junk – everything from the leftover files of uninstalled programs to accumulated browser cache or unwanted toolbars.

We redesigned our Cleanup software so that with a single click you can run a scan, easily see what scrap files you want to remove, and then wipe away up to 30GB of junk from your PC.
