Noticed it also and, while I found Avast to work OK I never liked the
interface. I'm very happy to remove Avast and install AVGQ

It would be much appreciated if you'd turn off HTML when posting to
newsgroups. In Windows Mail it's the same as in OE, click on
Tools/Options and the select the "Send" tab then select "Plain Text"
for the News Sending Format at the bottom of the page.

Grisoft AVG Antivirus was one of the first antivirus applications that
ran on 64-bit Windows. I'm not sure when they first started
supporting 64 bit Windows, but I've been running it on my Windows XP
x64 machine for about 1.5 years without any problems.
At the time of this writing, AVG is still a 32-bit application
though--it installs into c:\program files (x86). As time goes on, I'd
imagine there will eventually be an actual 64-bit version. This
situation isn't really different from what happened back in the
mid-90s with 16-bit apps slowly migrating to 32-bit.

AVG Professional has supported x64 for quite some time (at least mid-2006
and possibly earlier). The free edition didn't support x64 at first though.
