Congrats on the new version! I have been a loyal Avast user since 2005.
I run on Vista Home Premium SP3.
The previous 2 versions of Avast free were an unmitigated nightmare. While browsing, Chrome, Opera, and Firefox crashed, the laptop froze and I had to hard reboot. This happened 2-3 times a day. Other users reported the same in various threads in here.
I had to roll back to version 2218 and all the problems - repeat: ALL the problems - vanished overnight! My comp hums along contentedly.
I am afraid to install the new version (2016). I am terrified of going through the same catastrophic mess. In short: I am post-traumatic ...

Does anyone with Vista care to share if there are any problems with 2241 (crashes, freezing, restarting, etc.)?
Many thanks for your understanding and support.
