That e-mail confirms the continued availability of Avast! Home (the free
version) when Avast! 5 is launched. The e-mail does not address nor
mention the continued availability of a version that can run on Win 9x
systems such as Win Me.

Here's the question I posed, Mike:

Hello Support:

The question came up whether the Free Home Edition of Avast is going to be
terminated by year's end for Windows ME or Vista.
I am running the program in both systems.
Will you be so kind and clarify the situation?
Most gratefully,

Harry.

This is the statement from the Avast website copied and pasted
"Note: The operating systems Windows 95/98/Me/NT4 will be supported
until the end of 2009. " Hopefully they mean to rescind it.

Here's their answer to my inquiry for Jerry's information as well:

Dear Harry,

Home version will not be terminated even with avast! 5, there would be
version for free home use and for commercial use. It's false
information.
Kind regards,

Hello Harry:

Where did you get this information? (I'm not saying that you're
wrong, just that I'd like to see it also.)

I contacted Avast Support directly via email and they assured me
that it will Not be discontinued for neither Windows Vista nor ME
and information to
the contrary is false.
Let me know if you need to see their answer, I will have to copy and
paste
it for you.

Harry.


I couldn't find any info or the thread in the vista.geberal group.

Thanks,
Jerry

In the vista.general group I was told otherwise that it will be
continued
and referring to the Avast website, which I didn't check out
myself yet.
Go figure...

I couldn't find nothing either and Avast will also NOT be
discontinued.
Got it 'right from the horses mouth'.

Harry.
