Installing AVAST Pro Internet On A Brand New Laptop
« on: July 11, 2012, 06:17:41 PM »
It does not have any 3rd party Virus protection..that is...did not pre-load Norton or McAfee etc.

What should or should I not do to the Windows 7 to prepare it to safely and cleanly load Avast Pro?


Should I disable Windows Defender?  I read that Windows firewall plays nicely with AVAST so I can leave that turned on.  I have no plans to download Internet Security Essentials (or soes that come pre-loaded?)

I am going with AVAST verses Norton or McAfee based upon user reviews.  I am looking for a no nonsense protection taht won't create a lot of problems for my laptop.  I want to avoid the headache of the laptop cashing or not being able to access the Internet following the installationof AVAST.

Thank you,
