Why FREE Antivirus Software Sucks
Though Security of computer is the most important part of any computer
system, but people often take it lightly. They either don't care about
it or install some free antivirus software and believe that it will take complete care of security from malware injections and viruses. And there they go wrong because of ignorance.
Free Software Shouldn't be Preferred
I am not saying that just like that but here I will give you sufficient reasons to convince you.
Some people manage surviving without Antivirus but that isn't possible for everyone.
Free vs Paid Software
As mentioned above the drawbacks of the free antivirus software. Premium antivirus have all the benefits where free lacks. You can call technical support 24x7 for any issues and get resolved immediately. If they fail to reply or solve, you can ask for money back or complain against them.
Most of the cases, I have seen, even companies take care of their reputation ad treat with good pitch as you are a customer to them and valuable person.
Talking in terms of Security
Malwares of advanced and smart algorithms are released every now and then on Internet. What antivirus companies do is track those and update their database accordingly. After that, these are sent to users via update called Virus signature.
Premium software are always faster in tracking and their sources are strong to get data in realtime. Whereas Free antivirus may lag behind in getting information and updating it. And you may fall prey to some virus attack in mean time.
I am not saying Free software wont detect it but it will always be late.
Which Antivirus Software should I Buy?
I am not a PR or associated to any antivirus company so, whatever I said is personal experience. I recommend using McAfee as it is protecting me since last 2.5 years and I found it quite reliable.
They are running a 50% discount for a limited time so use McAfee Internet Security 2013 Coupon. It will give the protection for half the price applicable for 1 year for 3 PCs.

- Free Antivirus do not come with any warranty- They should be uses as it is by the developer. Company cannot be held responsible for any data lose or theft if you are relying on free antivirus.
- Free Software don't take any responsibility- Sometimes, you need support for small technical issues with security of computer. But with using Free versions, you cannot contact them straight to solve your problem. In most cases, they won't listen to you.
