Seriously don’t know how Avast is #1. Their software is horrible (I had given it a test run for my old blog).

And never even heard about ESET until Melih linked to the RC Awards. ^^

I know you didn’t!

Those are some tough/strong words there Boss.

Be careful, the Avast & ESET fans may come after you. Joke

By the way Boss, I am Neutral, so you do not have to worry about me.

Thanks for the background info. It helps in weighing the usefulness of your opinions.

we are talking about market shares, not efficiency… and avast is not so “horrible”…

avast is first coz everybody know about Avast (even in very small or developing countries) ,and most of people when asked about free antivirus, they answer Avast.

Are you sure? I am pretty sure that AVG is more well known than Avast.

Darn, I always seem to end up using important application software that only seems to attract a low percentage worldwide: CIS and Opera browser… why am I never with winning teams? :o

For some reason that reminded me of Charlie Brown. ;D

I’m actually very surprised Avast! scored so high, but with the speed Comodo is growing, I think we’ll be seeing the marketshare of other software begin to chip away.
