Avast Antivirus Free Edition (link current as of 08/25/2011)
Install this outstanding free antivirus program as a replacement for your current program, especially if your current program has expired. One great feature is that this program will actually speak to you (assuming your sound is on) telling you when it's updated its virus definitions, or if it detects a threat. Once Avast is installed, if you see a warning on your screen telling you to, "Quick do this!" but your computer hasn't actually spoken to you, you'll know that the warning is bogus. PLEASE NOTE: Do NOT click on the advertisement. Click the Download Now link below and to the left as shown in the example below.
