RE: Avast! Home Free vs. ESET Smart Security
I would definitely say that ESET is way better. I personally use Kaspersky because I like the interface, as far as effectiveness goes, both KAV and ESET at pretty much the same in detection rates.

One thing I do have to say is that people really are getting stingier as the days progress, I used to work as a tech and you would not believe the amount of people that would skimp out on an AV (and install AVG or just none at all) and then they end up bringing in their computers due to an infection and end up paying around double the amount of a year's worth of an AV license....

If you do the math, skimping out on an AV is quite silly. It costs about 17 cents per day for protecting your computer from infections that could easily cost you more than that to fix or worse lose time and data...
