KW> Both Avast and AVG are free. Avast is telling me it's license is

that's easy... you send in another free registration request and get a free
license sent to your email to put into avast... i've been using avast for
years and do this once a year for each of the machines it is protecting...

as for FPs, i only get them in the security lists i participate in when we
are exchanging signature data that avast has (stupidly??) decided to
blanket cover no matter where it shows up instead of restricting the
detection to only the places where is can/does show up... in those
instances, i just tell avast to ignore it and report it as a FP to avast
and carry on...

i have NEVER been able to get AVG to install and work on any machines,
period... this since AVG first appeared on the market... no, i've not
fought it nor have i gone seeking answers... i install it, reboot and if
there's a problem, attempt to install it once more... no go? remove it,
clean up its crap and move on to something else that does work... no big
deal :)
