I was thinking of installing AVAST free on my Win7 (64-Bit)
#1- and wonder if Avast would work on Win7 (64-Bit)?
#2- Would it also work on my WinXP and Vista (32-Bit) computers?
#3- Would the Antivirus 6.0.1125 version work on all of my computers (Win7 64-Bit; Vista 32-Bit and WinXP), or would I have to install a different 6.0.1125 on each computer?
#4- Does the Free Avast have spam protection also?
#5- I would like to manually download definition updates and manually do a scan? Is that possible or does Avast only have Automatic downloads and scanning?
#6- Is it easy for a novice to install, configure and use?

Thank you
Alice
