Note that Avira had a pretty big bug a few months back, that took them
a rather too long while to fix... Other than that, I've been satisfied
with them for more than 4 years, mostly on relatives wintel boxes,
since I know some of them would have opted for no AV... so free-av was
a better choice. For the last two months I've gone AVG for them
instead.
