| Need free AV for Win 98SE?
We have two old laptops used for travel, just net surfing, e-mail, etc. The laptop run Win98SE and are to old and slow to upgrade to XP or anything like it. We are unable to find a Anti Virus program, preferably free, that will run on them being AVG is discontinuing support for 7.X and 8. does not run on 98. Any ideas or hints? ***************** Thank You kGbAT@msbx.net To reply to this email please remove the AT after the kGb in the reply to address as shown above. |

Thank you for the reply, I checked out Avast but missed the 98 support, thanks for waking me up.

Sometimes a free version is a wrong one. So that i preffer to buy; first i had avast, a free version, and it took more space and it was very irritating. That's why a friend gave me a link with a program that helps me a lot. Look at this site, please and maybe you 'll say i'm right http://www.trustdownload.com/Antivir...urity-7.0.html |
