Greetings all,
 
I just wanted to let you all know that AVG 7.1 Anti-Virus (free version) will no longer be supported after January 1, 2007.
However the new replacement version AVG 7.5 is already available and is also free, and you can download it here:
http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5#avg-anti-virus-free
( Go 1/2 way down the page and look for the .exe )
I've been running it for 4 days and it's great. AVG is the best, imho, and I've been using it for a few yrs.
* Installation notes and other personal opinions below.

* Installation is very easy. Just choose all of the positive answers.
Do an update and a second to make sure, ( choose internet as the source and check the box that says don't ask again )
until you are told there are no more updates.

My experience with AVG has been that is very light weight and transparent, putting much less stress on
your PCs resources, ( ram usage and processing power ) compared to the 2 "big sellers" which are very
hard on a PC and have little concern for being efficient in usage of your horse power.
 
I've also seen AVG find things that the "big 2" missed.
It runs quietly in the background, watches all activity on your machine and needs practically no attention.
