Default Please help with anti virus

I downloaded avast about 6 months ago and now it has ended, I guess that was a trail basis and it states now I have to pay for it. Does anyone know another good free one that last longer than 6 months or do I just need to buy one? Thanks so much.

avast works rather well. but this last year they went to a paid version.

i however recommend tomy clients the use of webroot products. the swpysweeper with the antivirus and firewall works rather well on all my systems as well as my clients and beats having to have multiple instances of a seperte firewall, a seperate antivirus program and a seperate spyware/maware remover.


yes it is an all in one and its a yearly subscription.

its cheaper to have it on your system then to have the geeksquad come to your house and run thier version of it for you .
