By using its own antivirus engine combined with Avira’s engine and combined with cloud security, Baidu Antivirus protects your system from viruses, phishing attempts, and other threats. It provides real-time protection capabilities, it allows you to run on-demand scans, and it also allows you to securely delete the files you no longer need via its File Shredder. So to sum it up, you have a user friendly, efficient security solution for your PC.

The Baidu Antivirus installer is close to 15MB in size. Download it, run it, click through the setup wizard, and moments later you will be done with the installation process. The antivirus application can be installed on top of various Windows editions. Support for 32 and 64-bit editions of Windows 8, 7, Vista, and XP is provided.

The main panel on the application’s interface lists the on-demand scans you can perform: Full Scan, Quick Scan, and Custom Scan. The secondary panel on the interface displays the application’s real-time protection features. You can very easily enable and disable the ones you want. And you can further adjust the application’s behavior from the Settings menu; you can access it by clicking the icon in the upper right hand side of the interface.

Baidu Antivirus has the following security-related functionality to offer: run on-demand scans, there are three types of scans you can perform, protects your computer in real-time, integrates with the right click context menu, securely delete files with the File Shredder feature, choose how system resources are impacted by picking one of three Protection Modes, the application automatically updates itself and its databases, handy Do Not Disturb feature, automatically scans all downloads.

As mentioned above, Baidu Antivirus is a free application.

Baidu Antivirus is free, it is very easy to use, it provides efficient antivirus protection, and it is offered by a leading search engine provider. I don’t see what’s not to like about it.

Pros

Installing Baidu Antivirus on a Windows PC (32 and 64-bit Windows editions) takes very little time. The application features a good looking, easy to use interface. Baidu Antivirus protects against viruses and other threats. Baidu Antivirus integrates with the right click context menu. Baidu Antivirus can securely delete files. Baidu Antivirus is free.

Cons

None that I could think of.
