    Re: Anti Virus

    Wrong forum but ill answer it anyway, personal choice is AVG free have used it for a few years and never had any majour issues with its performance.

    http://free.avg.com/download-avg-ant...s-free-edition

    Their is also avast.

    http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

    plus, avira (i hear its less of a resource hog then AVG but can't be bothered to try it)

    http://www.free-av.com/

    Try them out and find out which best suits you.

    All are reported to work fine on Win 7

    Hi

    Thanks for your help. Tried avira but found no way of reading the warnings ( 3 in total ). I installed avast instead.

    regards
