Which AV for one of these here netbooks?

[Chris H]

Have just got an Acer Aspire One or summat like that for one of the younger brood.

Comes with XP and what looks liek a MacAfee trial. Any suggestions on a free av solution? Are there ones suitable for these netbooks?

I am liking Avast Home which is free.

Then I'm sure it will be more than suitable for me.

In fact I installed it the other day on the family pc as AVG was getting silly with downloading each time you logged on etc.

AVG is getting annoying for me too, i've heard good things about Avast and was going to give it a try too.

And the fact AVG is curently trying to get us to upgrade all the time with an annoying pop up.

I'm trying AVG at the moment, after my bundled subscription to Norton expired. I've had to remove and re-install some software to get AVG to recognise and allow it. Might try avast soon!

I bought my copy of AVG. Never looked back. Cracking bit of software.

I'm running AVG free and no pop ups here - been using it for years without a problem

You'll get it unless you've updated the software recently. It's the version going EOL.
