This might be helpful to those of you who do not yet have AVG Free Anti-virus. A former student wrote last week:
"Hi Tom,
Hope all is well with you. My Norton expires today and I thought I would install AVG security which you said was free. I found AVG security in two places but there is a charge for their services. Maybe I'm in the wrong pew. Can you give me a clue. Many thanks."
My reply:
You can download AVG Free Version 8 here: http://tinyurl.com/4e7jxt
After you download it to your desktop but before running it, I recommend that you download and run the Norton Removal Tool. You can get it here: http://tinyurl.com/3xdxhl
The reason for the Norton Removal Tool is that regular Add/Remove of Norton does less than a complete job and has been known to even fail.
After uninstalling Norton, install AVG.
