Avast! 4.7 Home <www.avast.com> is free (for private use) for eternity;-)

I'll have to jump in here and state that I tried the CA "EZ" product for Vista and was dissatisfied. I too get the two requests for UA permission to run in the Dashboard tray every time I log on. I wrote their support to ask about it and they basicly blew it off saying it's not their problem. Maybe not, but something useful about what settings to change or a work around would have been nice. There are other options, I am going to deinstall the CA procduct. My 2 cents. Steve
