Is there a link to Avast 6.0 Still around?  Having trouble finding one.

In filehippo.com select avast first, then to the right you have a list of older versions. Click one version to select it. Once the page shows the version you want, download it from the mirror site (since the green "download" link will give you the wrong version).

I found version 6 (on Avast site) and tried to install it.

I got an error message!!!

Avast version 7 really screwed up my computer to the point that I can't use ANY Avast products!!!
