AVAST! 5 released

<< < (4/8) > >>

Hi,
Does it work well with Win7 ?  I have to remove an expired McAfee version and I am considering either this new Avast or Avira Free Edition.

Bamse:
Sure it does http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#tab2 but if you want to be almost 100% certain it really really works then wait a week or so. There could be minor bugs like Lashiec might have run in to. Last beta was tested by over 1 million so... more like used due to bundling with Google Pack but at least Avast feel confident.

Only feature that does not work is boot scanner. For now only 32 bit.

Run Mcafees uninstaller http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507 after add/remove session. Or run it instead, not sure what is most correct. Either way, Mcafee must be completely gone.

Carol Haynes:
Seems to work fine on XP, Vista Ult and 7 Pro here.

No issues that I have noticed. (No audio jitters for me on XP anyway)

Thanks for the uninstaller link !  Unfortunately it yields to : http://service.mcafee.com/Error.aspx
