Re: AVIRA 8 Release Note http://dl1.avgate.net/down/windows/antivir_workstation_winu_en_h.exe Free Classic version 8 (21.3MB)
You're right, I was not pleased to see that it required installation or the fact that it was set to startup when Windows boots and had a service...
Thank you for the link Blackcat. That did the trick. For me, it was as simple as disabling the self defence option. For the life of me, I cannot...
I must say, I was very excited to see this AVP Tool standalone program and I am pleased with the way it functioned. However, I cannot get it off...

RejZoR, You are always so quick to point out your opinion of that notifier popup. That is your opinion and I do respect your opinion. However,...
I was hoping you were right about this, but apparently this is about the worst slowdown yet for Avira servers for Classic PE updates. It has timed...
I would also have to recommend the D-Link DI-604. You stated that you do not do wireless, so this one would be a perfect wired router for you. I...
I agree with you 100% that the AVNotify nag screen is the most annoying thing out there. However, it does only take a small amount of time using...
