Default newest version of avast! antivirus released v4.8

Hello:

For details see:

Press Release: newest version of avast! antivirus released
http://www.avast.com/eng/press-relea...-released.html

avast! antivirus Home Edition, anti-spyware & anti-rootkit for Windows
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Free antivirus - avast! 4 Home Edition
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-free-...tispyware.html

Note that the new v4.8 still supports Win 9x/ME, although not all features
are supported on these older platforms.

But the good news is that there is still a good anti-malware package that
currently supports these older platforms!

Cheers,
O.J.

I was asked whether to download the latest version, and upon agreement was
updated automatically. Imagine most users did the same, but for any
newcomers this is good to know. Thanks O.J. H.

Couldn't agree more.
There's one thing: even though it's free, you have to re-register on a
yearly basis.

Very interesting and quite convincing, even to the more sceptical minds.
To me it confirms having made the right choice.
Thanks for sharing, O.J.

Harry.
