Default Antivirus Program

Hello,

I have been using McAfee antivirus since 1998. Currently I have version 6
installed on Windows 98. Untill recently I was abel to download Dat updates
free. Now they are asking $39 US for one year dat renewal. I can buy version
8 here in store for $30 Canadian. The McAfee site does not mention that
upgrading to version 8 (now they have version 9) will include dat updates
etc. I have decided to dump McAfee.

I will appreciate your recommendation for the alternative antivirus program.
I am willing to buy it, if it includes free dat updates.

Thanks for your suggestion.
Mian
