Here’s another tip from your local Gascon Béret : when advised to up date Avast, do so. Register with a dummy email address to avoid getting more Spam.Reinstall Avast FREE using the file you just downloaded.Uninstall your current Avast (you have to do it in Safe Mode or go into its settings page first and remove its Self Protection feature).Download the latest Avast FREE Anti-virus from the link on their website which should direct you to the download page on 01.net or (depends where you are connecting from).

Then, when your year is up (Avast will alert you 30 or so days in advance), you just do the same thing and, if that doesn’t work you: I also rate it higher than products like AVG who like to infect your browser with their toolbar and other such spamware.Ĭonfession time : slap my wrists and whack me across the face with a rotting kipper, I always register with a false email address of the kind because there is in fact no need to register with a genuine email address in order to activate the product for a full year. I rate it way above the bloatware from companies like Symantec and McAfee and other such corporate AV structures. The latter’s software (the basic anti-virus protection) is free for personal use and all you have to do is register the product to get one of the finest, most effective and efficient anti-virus products available to computer users. Anybody who knows me will also know that I am a great fan of both Mozilla Firefox and Avast, the anti-virus people.
