Default Free AVG v9.0

The latest free AVG version now available.

Be aware they will keep "pointing" you at the paid version.

Also if asked untick the Yahoo Search before you untick the AVG toolbar (should you so wish).

Has it grabbed anything yet?

Here's the link to the Eicar test virus website.

eicar | THE ANTI-VIRUS OR ANTI-MALWARE TEST FILE

Before anyone get's their knickers in a knot, this a valid test website that is perfectly safe. I would not post the link otherwise...
