Several days ago I wrote about a Free Windows Firewall, well today I am following up with a Free Windows Anti-Virus Sofware. The software is called AVG Anti-Virus and I have been using it personally for over 2 years without any problems. The software is GREAT!!! It updates automatically daily and I have not had a virus since I installed it. For anyone running Windows this software is a must!
You can download it directly here and can use it free of charge as long as you follow the guidelines that the company has set for you.
Here is what the company states on their site:
Licensing
- AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition is for private, non-commercial, single computer use only. The use of AVG Free within any organization (including non-profit organizations) or for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited.
- AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition is not for use with any type of OEM bundling with software, hardware components, or any other services.
- Your use of AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition shall be in accordance with and is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition License Agreement that accompanies AVG Free.

Glad you like it Mike. I am sure you will be very happy with the anti-virus software as I have been using it for several years now without issue.
I have been finding the Firewall takes a little time to learn everything which could be very frustrating to a regular user but as time goes by it gets less intrusive to the user. It is important that everyone has a Firewall and Anti-virus installed on their Windows machine and what better way than to use FREE ones! Keep an eye out for a new post soon on why the built in Windows firewall is not all that it is cracked up to be…
