PC Tools AntiVirus

PC Tools AntiVirus

PC Tools AntiVirus program is easy to use and navigate. You can choose from two different scans. The full scan is what the average user will most often use. This will scan your entire computer. The other is a custom scan where you can choose which files you would like to scan.

One of PC Tools strengths is it makes a complicated process simple for the average user. This company has a good registry repair program as well as an anti-spyware program. Both have incorporated the same type of interface, which is great for the average user. The program has some great update features offering both automatic and manual updates, but overall this software doesn't offer as many features as the top-ranked products.

PC Tools Antivirus passed the VB 100% in 2007 and the West Coast Labs CheckMark 1 and 2. However, we did not see it on the ICSA 2007 list.

Its scanning process is very slow-way below the average scan time. On average PC Tools updates their virus definitions on a daily basis.

We contacted their email support; they answered all our questions and added an apology because it took six days to get a response.
