Avast! is one of the antivirus titles that has definitely grown in popularity in the past few years due to the continuous improvements the software has gone through with each release. The newest version of Avast has also undergone a lot of upgrades and updates offering great virus and spyware protection, a neat user interface and much more.

Avast - Main Menu

Installation & Requirements
The newest version of Avast has a clean installation process that doesn’t come bundled with adware toolbars or any other oddities. Although it can take a bit longer than expected, the installation process is simple and trouble free and it even gives the user the possibility to create a system restore point as a safety precaution.
Avast comes with the option of installing a Vista/Windows 7 gadget that can be unchecked in the custom install menu, or it can simply be removed later on after Avast has finished installing on your computer.
As for platform availability, the latest version of Avast supports Windows (32/64 bits), Mac and Linux altogether and the minimum system requirements on each platform are as followed:
Windows:
- Intel Pentium III
- 256 MB of RAM
- 210 MB of free HDD space
Mac:
- Intel CPU
- Mac OS X 10.4 / 10.5 Leopard
- 128 MB of Ram
- 50 MB free HDD space

Avast comes in three versions, one of which is the freeware version that requires only a free registration in order to be able to use it after the 30 day trial period -with some limitations obviously- and for better protection there are also the Pro and the Internet Security paid versions.
Interface
The Avast user interface has not really changed since the previous edition, however that is not something to complain about. After all, why change something that works? The user interface delivers a very neat orange, white and gray look and gives the feeling of a quality product.
Every option and feature that can be found on Avast is conveniently placed at the user’s interface for ease of use. On the left side of the screen can be found a handful of tabs that are used to easily navigate around all the features that Avast has to offer, such as Scanning and Real-Time Shields. Once clicked, each of these tabs will reveal sub-categories that will further let you choose between the features offered by Avast in more depth.
