Confidence and frustration in equal measure
Windows User
I have confidence, based on anecdotal information, that TotalAV are delivering a secure service. And so they should, for the price. What irritates is that, on renewal, they always try to gouge me on the new price level, but reduce it substantially when I firmly negotiate based on a (real) threat to decamp to a competitor. It's no reward for my loyalty and quite tiresome. Please desist the practice.

Doesn't slow down too much the PC. I hope it does the job, never got any problem except with the automatic subscription which is automatic and costy.
Not sure it works 100% since I never see that virusses have been discovered and put in quarantine or rejected.
