Description of AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition

This antivirus program offers rock-solid protection. AVG Free provides the bare necessities, including a real-time shield to prevent infections, anti-virus and anti-malware wrapped up in one engine, and a link scanner for Web surfing with care.

By default, the application is set to search for new virus definitions daily, but you always can use the scheduling tool to change this. Should a virus create serious system problems, AVG creates a rescue disk to scan your computer in MS-DOS mode. The program doesn't tax your system when scanning or when running in the background and always proved effective in our tests. The new interface is much easier to navigate than in previous version, with tabbed navigation on the left assisting users in drilling down to the tools they need.

Though the free version of this program will suffice for average folks, those who demand more control should certainly consider AVG Anti-Virus Professional.

Windows Vista Support

You’ve probably heard that Microsoft will offer Vista via download
as well as the traditional methods, but did you know home users will
be able to upgrade from one home Vista version to another
In the past, Microsoft has supported an OS version for two years
after releasing a new one. CNN’s website has reported that MS has
announced that they will offer what they call “extended support” for
XP for five years after the initial two-year support ends in 2009. The user will be prompted for payment, and after doing so, the
appropriate Vista features will then be available.
Support for Vista hardware is compounded by the fact that most vendors have not created drivers of their hardware that is compatible for Vista making support more of a headache. This is understood when it comes to peripherals such as printers and scanners but so far as critical hardware components such as hard drives, chipset controllers and video cards are concerned the lack of compatibility will crash the system. The manufacturers of primary components of the computer hardware system are just not ready with their wares to support Vista.
