Avast Secure Browser review

This discussion thread was locked by steve2470 (a host of the Computer Help and Support group).

Avast Secure Browser is a free Chromium-based web browser by security company Avast that is advertised as private, fast, and secure on the official download site.

The web browser is the official successor of Avast SafeZone Browser which Avast discontinued some time ago to focus development on the new browser.

We will take a close look at the web browser in our review; you will learn about installation and use, functionality that it provides, and whether the fast, secure and private promise is kept.

Didn't like it;

and still have bits and pieces of it cluttering up my computer.

The comments below the article state ample reasons to avoid this software.
