MessageI just installed AVAST last week so cannot answer your question about the pop-up reminders. When I had AVG 7.5, I never did get a message saying that this version was going to be out by the end of this month. Had to read about this elsewhere. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jim To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, May 25, 2008 7:17 PM Subject: RE: question about AVAST Another question about Avast before I install it is, How often are the popups or reminders to upgrade ?

Do any of you get this message with your free version? Everything indicates that the program is running, updating and scanning. Jane
