      AVG free here too. I've put it on Mr TS's lappy, his mum's and my mum's. You should still do something like a Malwarebytes scan at least every week too, esp. if he's likely to be viewing certain websites

        I thought AVG was only free for a trial period? I put it on Mr. G's lappy, and it needs updating...

          No, it's always free, if you click on the FREE VERSION (you have to look for it, because they obviously want you to get the paid-for version)

          On this link, it's the version on the left, not the FREE TRIAL version on the right: http://free.avg.com/gb-en/homepage

            Do you have on-line banking? If so some banks offer free AV software. I get a 3pc licence for kaspersky.

              Also, some ISPs have free AV software as part of your package. If not, AVG free is pretty good.

                Thanks very much for this, I'll certainly look for AVG when my McAfee is due for renewal.

                        Phil, there's a free version of Avast here - it works well.
