Default Avast free

Just wondering what free antivirus people are running here. I have been
running Avast Free for years but it is really getting to be a pain with
it's constant program updates (not definition updates) Personally I
think the older interface was better.Right now I have version
2014.9.0.2013 and it is constantly nagging about updating the program. I
know it is a highly rated one but maybe there is something out there
that people like better?



I use McAfee LiveSafe - Internet Security and it is free for me because
my new DELL Laptop came with 12 months free subscription. Also, I am
allowed to install this on any ther devices I own such as my Desktop and
other laptops in the family. I love it despite what people may think
about it here.

Very soon I will be joining PlusNet Broadband service and they also
provide McAfee LiveSafe Security free as part of the broadband service.

It is unlikely I will touch the free versions for a very long time. I
was using Microsoft Security Essential on my XP and Windows 7 but when I
got free McAfee I removed it and installed McAfee.

I will never touch Kaspersky for the mere reason that it is owned by a
Russian convicted hacker and fraudster. Mind boggles that a bank like
Barclays is using them for its customers.
