Reply: (edit)AVG anti-virus will remain free with a catch. Quoted: A spokesman for GRISoft confirmed that the firm had no plans to ditch its line of free software, while stressing users would enjoy improved support with the paid-for version of the software. "Users should be presented with a dialogue which explains their options," a GRISoft spokesman said. He conceded that, judging by the handful of responses we've received, this dialogue box was perhaps not as clear as it might have been. i_XpUser

Reply: (edit)XpUser, What's the catch? The situation is no different, Free version / Paid for version
It's not that I can't remember things as I get older, it's just that my hard drive's full.

Reply: (edit)Not really. I just wanted to point out what you will get if you use the paidware version. Other than that the AV functionality is the same. i_XpUser
