PC Utilities review:
If you don't yet have an antivirus application or are coming to the end of your subscription service there are some good quality freeware programs worth considering. Alwil Software's avast! Home Edition is free for personal use and includes everything you need to stay virus free, including real-time scanners.

User reviews:
rayrwb says: Fine programme. Ticks all of the boxes as far as l am concerned.Have used for several years with XP, though an earlier version, on a friend's computer with Vista, did not perform well.Non-system resource hungry unlike some other free anti-virus programmes. (31/08/2009)
jack bithell says: Have used it for some years without a problem. Programs like PCPitStop recognise it as a great set-up. (22/04/2008)
