Guest Navyguy Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 I have a Dell Dimension 8200 with XP SP2, DSL and presently have AVG, Comodo, SpywareBlaster, and Hive Cleanup as well as System Mechanic. I'm on a fixed income and really can't afford to buy too much. Within a day or so my free AVG version will no longer be supported and I was wondering if there is another free version I could use? Avast? Kaspersky? I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks, Robert

Guest LVTravel Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Re: Free Antivirus suggestions If you like AVG simply go to their web site and download version 8.0X, uninstall version 7.5 and then install the newer version.

Guest R. McCarty Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 Re: Free Antivirus suggestions Just be aware that AVG 8.0 adds features not found in previous releases. Specifically AVG 8 adds a "Link Scanner" that can be a problem. AVG 8 also tries to slip a Security Toolbar into it's setup. If you use AVG 8.0 you'll want to consider disabling the Link Scanner and then setting it as an ignored feature or the icon in the system tray will always show a warning state.

Most of the users are emotionally attached to their AV application and will have excellent reasons for not recommending any other brand. The most important thing here is that all of the available choices listed here are better in some respects than in others, and which choice is better for *you* depends on what you do, how you work, and which features you use. The way you use your PC is different from others. Have a look at this: http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm and be guided accordingly.

Interesting reading: http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,136195/article.html "...Windows Defender did excel in behavior-based protection, which detects changes to key areas of the system without having to know anything about the actual threat." A clarification on the terminology: the word "malware" is short for "malicious software." Most Anti-Virus applications detect many types of malware such as viruses, worms, trojans, etc. What AV applications usually don't detect is "non-viral" malware, and the term "non-viral malware" is normally used to refer to things like spyware and adware.

Well, I'm not emotional about it... but here's .02 worth: AVG 8 (Free) is a pig. I say that having been a big AVG fan for several years. V8 has all sorts of issues - the biggest being the web link scanner which brings many systems to their knees. They do have a procedure for disabling it but the program is still a pig. I've moved to Avast. A very nice program overall. No complaints so far. The only feature I shut off is the VRDB (restore database) generation as I don't like any performance inhibitors and I am willing to run on the edge a little.
