Re: Which Free AV To Use? - Avast Paid Is Expiring Gee then Avast free, maybe less features and control same basic stuff. So go free with what you have now. |

Just wanted to thank everyone again and let you folks know that I purchased one year of Avast Pro Antivirus for one user for $23.99. I purchased it from the downloadcrew site that was posted by MarkAW above. |

said by lordpuffer:Thanks Rebrider  for the great post. I am careful where I go and have also been online since dialup. I think that I've had one virus about 5 or 6 years ago.
The machine that I want to protect is my laptop which I do not use every day. I really only go to certain mainstream sites with it, and I know that if you have to stray, Google with WOT are your friends. 
Because I do not use my laptop every day, I've been thinking of trying a free program like MSE. Avast expires in 15 days. I will post what I end up using.
I've tried all the free options and I stick with MSE (on my Win7 Ultimate 64). None of the others come close to being as resource-stingy as MSE. I honestly never know it is there unless the few times it has tagged a potential malware in something I've downloaded. As the other guy said, the best defense is being a smart user.
