1341823 2013-05-20 22:17:00 That is something I cannot agree with I find Avast a pain in the proverbial. I find for a free one MSSE kicks Avast every time and Nod32 is the best of the paid stuff. I too have not had a virus for years but I found Avast popups incredibly annoying

If you don't want Avast popups you can simply turn them off!

1341824 2013-05-20 22:56:00 Avast have started sneaking in other bundled software now. They 'claim' this was a mistake & you can opt out , but its often forced through with no opt out (eg Google Drive) . They have known about this for quite some time but still seem to be denying it.

Not the sort of sneaky underhand thing I'd want from a Company Im relying on to keep the PC clean.
Running out of options for Freeware AV now. Many wont scan email (This is one area where NOD32 is quite good)
AVG is bloatware
Avir popups put me & many others off that program .
MSSE seems to be getting less effective(not unexpected given MS's previous AV software attempts)

1341825 2013-05-21 00:15:00 I already use Google drive, why don't you do the same? It's free harmless and useful.:)

I understand you though, people, that should be "Websites' keep trying to get me join Facebook.
I spent 3 years on Facebook without finding anyone who could communicate; so I quit!:(

PS. I have posted a question on Avast Forum ( what a mess compared with PressF1 ), we will see if they help.
