    The way I read Grisoft's notification note, no, 8.0 is not free.
    Have used AVG for some time and found it reliable, can't afford annual antivirus fees on top of all other expenses. Can any one please reccommend a reliable free anti virus?

    Yeah....AVG free lol. You can find it in the download section here. I use it religiously, never run into any problems.

    I've also downloaded version 8.0 and installed it, it's still free.

    I have found avg antivirus to be a little unreliable, especially with a certain kind of pretty common keylogger trojan. I install avast free version instead, with avg antispyware which IS excellent.

    To svtstang and to iluvendo especially (thanks for the link). I've now also downloaded 8.0, it's up and running. I deleted 7.5, was that the right thing to do? Thanks again guys!
