AntiVirus Software
Posted by mjpete on Aug 2, 2009
AntiVirus Software is universally accepted today as a necessity. Anyone using a PC without an AntiVirus software package is thought to be foolish or reckless. Most people are very good about installing AntiVirus software when hey first purchase a new PC. The majority of people allow thier annual subscription to run out after a year, so they no longer receive updates. Having AntiVirus software that is out of dat is just as bad as not running with AntiVirus software.
If you’re like me and you have several machines in the house, the $40 to $60 subscription fee per machine can add up to be a significant yearly expense. With the kids in the house, I can’t even think about running the risk of not having AntiVirus software.
Well, there is a very nice solution to my problem – AVG. For the home PC’s AVG has a free version of AntiVirus software that is on par with Norton and McAfee. Under the free version licensing, each owner can have a single copy installed for personnal use. Since MJ and Jill each has thier own laptop that is strictly for thier own use, I can have a copy on each of thier PC’s.
If you’re tired of paying annual subscriptions, or if you have allowed your subscription to run out, I would encourage you to check out Free AVG version.
