Whoops Adrien! 

Haven't downloaded it myself yet but when Avast wants renewal I then fairly 
surely will! 

I got away from dial-up but that download bill must be something else; good 
package you have hopefully!

  Hi Adrian,

  13 hours, even on dial-up, is way over the top for what is around a
  4-5 meg download of MSE.

  Hi George and tony

  Ok I have removed avast and have gone over to mse, it's good
  but only being on dialup, the up-dates take a long time. Is
  this right? I ended up downloading it manually and it said
  13 hours, something else must be running. 


  Regards

  Adrien

  I agree with Tony here.  I've moved all our office and home
  systems to Microsoft Security Esentials, plus many otheres I
  know have done the same. So far, no adverse reports.  Quite
  the reverse.
   
  And it's free!

  Adrien, 
   
  The mod on a list here informs us which I'm on tells us to
  get rid of Avast! 
   
  It was okay for us before but the new version isn't! 
   
  Uninstall and try MSSE.
   
  Sorry if that doesn't answer your question exactly!

  Hi 

  The new version of avast has new voices, a young
  lady, and
  some chimes at the beginning of each message.

  I have come across a problem with avast this
  morning. Avast
  up-dated and immediately reported that one of my
  outlook
  add-ons is a threat. I tried to reinstall the
  program but
  the threat message keeps coming up. I tried to
  remove avast
  but it won't go. I have had to remove the add-on for
  now, I
  think it's just the avast up-date, it may correct
  itself
  later. We tried to find out where to allow the
  program as a
  safe item but it's hidden. I have reported the
  problem to
  avast and to sperrysoft.  


  Regards

  Adrien

  Hi Barbara and all -

  Not been following this thread, but do have Avast
  installed;
  it use to give me a daily announcement that the
  database had
  been updated, but all has been quiet now for some
  weeks. Are
  there issues with Avast? Is that why you wanted to
  uninstall
  it Barbara? -
