AVG Free
For a number of years now, the free version of AVG has been a popular free antivirus option for Windows users. It provides solid protection against viruses and other malware, and there is no registration required. Virus definition updates are automatic, and scheduled scanning is supported. Version 8 ships with the optional AVG Security Toolbar, which may be a good idea for some users. It provides security ratings for known websites and provides a little added protection in your browser – a place some users desperately need it. If you do not want the toolbar installed, be sure to uncheck the box during install. Pay attention on the download page too: It is easy to miss the free version and get the TrialPay version. Sure, you can plunk down a lot of cash for an antiviral application with more features, but AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition delivers the goods for free. By default, the application is set to search for new virus definitions daily, but you always can use the scheduling tool to change this. Link to Computer Repair Home Page
