Avast vs Emsisoft


I believe that Emsisoft is better than Avast!
I have used both Anti Virus programs on my own pc. And have carefully tested both in virtual environments as well. You can see the test results in the comparison table below. Where it is obvious that Emsisoft is a better choice than Avast!
