So you reckon AVG Free is the way to go.
Many thanks for that useful info, I will look into that.

I used to work as a volunteer software tester for and Av company many years ago as a tester checking for compatibility issues, I also started and ran for 10 years a registered UK charity teaching It, started TWO computer clubs and still build computers for myself and my son.
I have NEVER paid for AV software.
I have used AVG FREE for years, it is superb. my son is a gamer he is autistic and plays online all over the wold so uses Bit Defender, it really slows the PC down I refuse to use it
1. You won't even know you have AVG on the computer
2. Does NOt alter anything or slow it down#
3. IT WORKS and bloody well, in 10 years I have never had an issue ever
1. Hackers specifically try to attack computers running the MOST used/well known AV software such as Norton, Avast, Bit Defender, it is a challenge to them, software such as AVG, Panda, Sophos are "left" alone more a bit like Windows v Apple
OH AND THIS WAS NOT DONE INTENTIONALLY, I was Just googling FREE av software
It only warns you when it has done it's job I have NEVER upgraded
AND you can turn on/off what notifications you do/don't want it is totally controllable, try it nothing to lose
