[gui-talk] Using AVG antivirus?

[Joel Deutsch]

Albert,

I'm confused. Weeks ago, I replied to a question from you of this sort, said 
I was using AVG free edition, and offered to coach you in the pretty small 
things you have to get used to in order to jockey around the interface for a 
couple of functions. It's not very difficult. As for the paid version,I 
think others may remember exactly what extra benefits that gets you. I think 
real time con continuous  scanning of some sort (although even the free 
edition, which I use, monitors your incoming and outgoing email constantly, 
so do not worry that you have to pay for that) and the ability to personally 
set a schedule for updates and scans instead of accepting a default daily 
update and obviating the need to perform a scan manually at the time of your 
choosing, which I do without complaint. Weekly, in my case, rather than 
daily.

anyway, the Free Edition is just fine, in my book. I've been using it, 
starting with an earlier version, for years, and have no complaints, and 
never a virus infestation that I've been aware of.

Hope that helps. Write me offl list if you want to have more of a back and 
forth about this. Meantime, don't worry. it's fine.

I just installed a new hard drive and the tech put this free antivirus
program on my machine.  It seems accessible but if anyone knows of a any
articles written about its use with the blind in mind please send the link
or address information.  Also, are there benefits to installing the paid
version?  If so what are they.  thanks
