Avast has higher ratings, although both are good and more than sufficient. |

BAWS Man ! It all depends on what site you're looking at  I prefer the look of Antivir over Avast, the only reason I give it the coveted accolade of a keasy FTW!!1 award  I'm kinda surprised that AVG have stopped supporting Windows XP all the same considering it's user base, hence potential full customers and that M$ still support it.  |

I never even thought to check Keasy. I just assumed Cent was on the ball and being pro-active. Hell, Windows 2000 is still supported, which is understandable because it is arguably the best OS M$ has made to date.
