Hey Guys!

Did any of you receive the same Thanksgiving gift that I did this morning? Namely, the notice on my task bar, with a message informing me that AVG Free is going away as of January 2007?

Is that true? Are there any more truly free antivirus programs left anymore that are also accessible with Jaws? I mean, I feel cheated... I just tossed Norton last year, and have had a blissful year of having free protection, with a truly accessible antivirus program!

Maybe it is just me, but it seems like when those people start getting paid every month, it kind of makes them less sharp and on their toes... don't you think? You know, like the money actually makes them a bit lazy at keeping that sharp edge to their business?

Okay, so two questions. First, does anyone know if the notice that AVG Free antivirus is going away in January is true, and secondly, does anyone have any suggestions about a free antivirus program, that is accessible with Jaws?

If not, what is everyone using on the paid side of things, that is an accessible antivirus program?

   Thanks, guys, you are the very best!

Billy
