    Nice one. I've always used the free version and found it great. Whats the difference between the free version and the pro version?

    The license then expires 1/12/2008 from what I can tell.
    I just installed it quickly to see (I use & prefer Avast!). It seems to be one year and then "you have the option to purchase a license at a discounted price". You might be able to pick up another license by then (If they're still producing it by then).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,356 ✭✭✭coldfire1x


    ^^ Why you prefer Avast? What more it offers?

    I am just curious :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,396 ✭✭✭✭Karoma


    I've installed AVG quite a lot of times on different computers over the last few years. Nearly every installation of AVG has suffered a break-down for no obvious reason (At an educated guess, dodgy/failed update) and it failed to pick up on a virus I knew was there on one occasion which Avast! picked up. So reliability and better detection rate, but only slightly. It still pisses on what McAfee and Norton have to offer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,356 ✭✭✭coldfire1x


    Thanks, I will try Avast sometime :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,396 ✭✭✭✭Karoma


    (Just in case it wasn't clear to others) They have a free version as well:
    http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

    You need to register for a SN but it's free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,148 ✭✭✭ciano1

    You no longer have to register, just hit "next" and it doesn't bother you again :)

    It's been in my toolkit for years.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Download doesn't seem to be working at the mo :(

    I thought that was only good for 1-3 months or something. I have been using the same SN for quite some time... heh.


    ciano1: Try again in an hour. If it's still not up. I'll throw a copy up or post a SN and you can download it from AVG's site.

    Was afraid it might be the case.
    Try the original link in a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,849 ✭✭✭Redisle


    Nvm, Just wait for the original link to start working again ( I had offered to upload it to rs, just realised thats not such a good idea)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭thund3rbird_


    new link:

    ftp://AVG:av75@ftp.vnudownloads.org/avg7_503a1171_vnu.exe

    you may keep getting the following error but keep trying...
    530 Sorry, the maximum number of allowed clients (500) are already connected.
    Unable to make a connection. Please try again.

    working for me at the mo via the ftp link but transfer is max 25 - 30 KB/sec
    only one jet in flashget working

    "421 Not logged in, access denied. Please don't hammer."




    seeing this on the original page explains why... :D

    3 broadband customer? Shared ip?

    I tried doing a repair install over AVG free and it does not work. You need to uninstall AVG free before running the program.

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 19,480 Mod ✭✭✭✭slave1


    cheers OP, downloaded in the wee hours and installed over my existing free version. all working fine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,924 ✭✭✭eamon234


    Is it me or is there feck all difference between this and the free one other than it having a commercial licence and multiple languages?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,473 ✭✭✭✭Our man in Havana


    Certainly seems that way.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 975 ✭✭✭squibs


    I thought the scheduler was better in the pro version?

    Looks like they have gone into 'lockdown' mode on this.

    'login not accepted'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭ian_m


    Freebie over.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 752 ✭✭✭redfan


    would of loved them to do the anti spyware version for free if there was a pro version.. used very little memory to run it ..

    Just use Bogman's link it works fine - but like I said no real difference from the free version at the end of the day.
