What's the difference between AVG 8.0 and AVG Free?

(apart from one costing $70 for 2 years and the other being free)
Not a huge amount really. No manufacturers support for the free version apart from database upgrades. Not sure how long the auto updates last after install with the new version. With the earlier spyware program, you had to manually update after 30days, but the AV program gave auto updates all the time.
Haven't heard any reports of problems with Yahoo mail so far, actually just been told it speeds up the downloads.
You can set the CPU priority allowed to AVG when it scans, might have it set too high.
