Avast One – Privacy & Security 4+

Avast One is easy to use and remarkably fast. It's nice to have reliable Internet security, with apps for removing advertisement trackers, malware that is attached to websites, emails, and web files.
I lost 350 pages of a novel once, that took a year and a half to rewrite. It took two years to write the first time.
So malware can do a tremendous amount of personal and professional damage.
Avast reports the various categories it has checked, and it appears to be a comprehensive security app which offers different security vectors for specific searches beyond the normal scans of personal files. If the malware "patterns" are as professionally coded and updated, as the app programming, it's a lot of protection for a reasonable annual cost.

The software was easy to install for my iOS devices.
However the MacBook Pro install was and is more of an issue. The MacBook was bewildering to determine where to go for changes that needed to be made to allow the install to complete.
I still have 2 issues, the software identifies that I have two devices and I have three devices counting the MacBook. The devices are all on the same account. Also the malware software doesn’t seem to work for site searches “Can’t find server” “Google services “ and “No internet service “.

I will only be getting the free stuff from Avast from now on, if I don’t just go with someone else entirely. Last time I was renewing my subscription they double charged me, once to renew my old subscription and then to buy my new one. (They did refund the renewal charge once I got ahold of someone.)
This time, they renewed without notifying me until the day they charged my card. For $106! And I can’t even use it on my phone because it starts preventing apps from working and blocks websites it shouldn’t (like Microsoft Office, and places like that), and I fight with it on my computer too. So I’m paying over $100 for something I can barely use, because it screws up my devices.
Now I’m on hold crossing my fingers for a refund (which I probably won’t get), and I’ve been on hold for almost an hour. With extremely annoying “music”.
