That's what I was told too, Vic...but why a free lunch when everybody else charges?

When I looked into it it's not their best software. They also have a premium one that you have to pay for.

Anyways, I don't use Anti Virus on my pc. When I did that's when I got hacked. Haven't used any for almost three years now.

Microsoft Security Essentials. It's free, doesn't bog down the computer. I have recently switched to this and have found it to be very solid.

clamwin, its free

have never had a virus

open source programs are typically just as good as commercial programs, because of fragmentation of ideas and constant user improvements

Installed AVG 2011 on all three of my PC's

Love the way it runs in the background and doesn't always prompt you to allow this or that. Plus you can easily crack it and make the full version work for 8+ years LOL

With my Internet Provider, they give us their anti virus/spyware programs for free. I have never had any problems at all and it is a very solid software they give us.
