    Hi All,
    I am in need of an anti-virus software that is free for the moment.
    can anyone suggest a good free AV that is user-friendly that finds and remove suspected viruses.

    thanks,

    boss.

    From my experience the three posted av's posted above I prefer Avira (simple and unobtrusive) and use it on 2 computers - XP & Vista without issues.

    Is the free version of Avira enough protection than the Premium? Otherwise, Avast is better.
