Where can I download Version 7
« on: July 03, 2013, 04:46:54 PM »
Please can someone tell me where I can download Version 7 (preferable an avast link)

I have just wasted about 1-1/2 hrs of my life searching this forum with no luck

Version 8 reminds me of the reason I left AVG years ago, slow, slow, slow

Avast 8 is a lot faster then Avast 7. What other security tools are you running along side? Care to elaborate on the slowness. Thanks.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=avast+7+download <== Just google "avast 7 download".  http://filehippo.com is my fave download site but I recently discovered http://filehorse.com perhaps related by animals! You have to be careful of dodgy download sites - always best to use a trusted site or better still the vendor's site.

Many thanks, I used aswclear.exe in safe mode then installed 7.0.1474 from filehippo.com and my PC (XP Pro SP3 P4 2.79GHz 496RAM) is back to its regular speed.

Long may virus definitions be available for version 7

Your system is extremely old. The average new pc comes standard with 4GB of ram. You only have 496MB. If you upgraded your ram to at least 2GB it would benefit you immensely. Keep in mind that by years end there will no longer be support for XP.
