AVG not free from June 2008

Damn , AVG should remain free but if it does not then I will surely pay for it.

 

If you download from http://www.grisoft.com , it is the Paid version. To get the free version, download it from http://free.grisoft.com . The free AVG 8 is hosted there.

I believe they just want to phased out the older v7 and support one code base, the v8.

 

Thanks a lot Eddy. It is working from that site. I am currently down loading AVG 8.0

Use anything but Avast!
They suck.
AVG was never great too.

 

I've been using Kaspersky for over 2 years now and it has detected every virus / trojan / keylogger.

 

But it sometimes detects Windows components. Fine otherwise

 

If AVG is for sale next month, don't worry, there are tons of antivirus freeware around the globe. They are not the only one in that quality.

 

There was always a paid version for AVG, but I don't use it anymore.

Honestly, I don't think anti-virus programs are necessary. I haven't had a virus since Windows XP. To be honest, don't you think that the anti-virus program companies sends out the viruses themselves? Otherwise, how does AVG update your definitions everyday? I don't think new viruses come out on a daily basis.

 

That sounds a bit too much like a conspiracy theory to me.
