Free Anti-virus program kramer31 11-01-2006

Hi. I've been using an anti-virus program called AVG. It has been
pretty good, but as of next January, AVG will be discontinuing the free
version. I guess that I don't engage in behavior that is too risky. I
always install my MS updates, I usually only connect to the internet
behind a hardware firewall and I don't use pop email (web-mail only).
Still, I feel like I should have an AV program and I don't want to pay
for it.

Can anyone recommend a good free AV program?

Thanks.

Where did you hear that they will be discontinuing the free version?
AVG 7.1 will be going away and replaced with the new 7.5 free version.

want to try another av software , AVIRA's AntiVir free is excellent
