Free anti virus programs Just had a not from AVG saying after 25th June there will be no more updates and you will need to subscribe if you want them. Can anyone recommend any other good, FREE anti virus programs that they use?

Delete the zip file, empty the recycle bin, turn off system restore then try this : http://vil.nai.com/VIL/stinger/ it's the McAfee Stinger - a stand alone trojan remover. Run it.
