In the free version you do get email virus scanning but you do not get
email spam filtering, if you want that.

According to the AVG web site, AVG 8.5 free edition does not offer email
spam protection.  Check it out for a comparison of features between the
free and paid versions of AVG.  Pay particular attention to the heading
"What You Don't Get With AVG 8.5 Free":

        I'm not quite sure. I did not manage to find it myself, but the
person who helped me with it said the link to the free one was
mislabelled

        But it's out there! 

        Here's the message that now appears at the bottom of my e-mails
in the inbox now. Maybe the link there will work?

                Hello Alice,

                 

                Where did you get 8.5 free?  When I clicked on the
update it said you had to pay $35.

                        Has anyone downloaded the new AVG free 8.5? 

                            I did, and now, it seems that AVG is running
scans for hours every day. I guess this should make me feel all safe and
protected from viruses and other goodies, but while this is going on,
JAWS stutters and hitches up and locks up, and it's really hard to get
anything done. 

                            Anyone else noticing this? Are there any
settings I can change to encourage JAWS to keep performing even when
these scans are running in the background? 

                        Thanks, 

                        Alice 

                        alicedh@xxxxxxxxxxx
