Hello good day to all.

I'm running windows 7 home premium.I downloaded the avast from here...AVAST 2014 | Download Free Antivirus Software for Virus Protection
I have malwarebytes installed & Superantispyware.

Update on my posting.

Problem solved,I had to disable ''Self protection module'' in advanced settings in Malware Bytes.After Avast was up and running I enabled the settings in Malware.
Now all went well with Avast.
Now shall I run the free version or would it be advisable to buy the pro version??

Many Thanks.
David.

I've been running the Avast Free version for years, on more than one PC!

It is a personal preference, and, of course, your choice.

Like anything else, some people like it, others do not.
