I was happy with avast 4 during years.

Now I feel that am being forced to upgrade to 5 or bye bye avast?

if microsoft had made the same thing with xp forcing everybody to upgrade to vista, they could be in bankruptcy now.

Don't you mean Vista to Windows 7?

Bottled water is the single biggest ripoff ever foisted on the public. I never buy nor drink any of it. Actually I don't drink plain water, period.

Peter-
Are you referring to the Pop up that comes on each time you start your computer?  Just curious, because that is what just started happening on my laptop.

Believe us, version 5 should be lighter than version 4.
The support for version 4 will end soon. They need to push the last 4.8 users to upgrade.
