    You mean the Ashampoo antivirus promo? I had taken a shot at it and if i remember correctly, i got 1 year license for free.

    But it was kinda buggy and caused unusual slow downs.

    If it doesn't, its kinda pointless cause it doesn't have AS, so I would rather use Antivir directly.

    I came across this proggy, formerly CyberHawk, now Threatfire.

    Should this go in the list? I looked at it, ran a scan and found no fault with the handling.

    Antidote PC SuperLite
    This is like DrWeb Cureit however it only scans for infections. I read from an old thread here that it uses Kaspersky's signatures. The site seems dead now.

    Antidote Free Antivirus
    This seems new. Has no RTP but removes threats. You need to register to get the installer and license key by e-mail.

    My Free Antivirus by SmartPC Solutions (creators of 1-2-3 Spyware Free)
    Already discussed here.
