Well, at least for avast! the quality of the main function, i.e. virus
scanning/prevention, is the same as for their commercial/business
versions. See their website (<http://www.avast.com>) for details.

rather limited and often incorrect view. OTOH, you post via
news.individual.net, so you apparently do not think that all free
solutions are bad! :-)
