Here comes version 8.0 of AVG Anti-Virus Free! PDF E-mail

The free version of AVG 8.0 is “intended for personal and non-commercial use on single computers running Windows 2000, XP or Vista” – so if you’re running a business, and you should be using the free version but should pay for a commercial version instead.

The product will be released initially in English, with Japanese following next week; other language versions are planned for release over the next few months. 

Business users can select Network Edition or SBS Edition versions of the AVG Anti-Virus and AVG Internet Security products. AVG File Server Edition 8.0 and AVG E-Mail Server Edition 8.0 server protection products are also available.

Karel Obluk, chief technology officer at AVG Technologies, said: “With the release of AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 8.0, we are underscoring our belief that all computer users, regardless of their computer usage needs, have the right to a safe and worry-free computing experience.”

As you’d expect, Obluk couldn’t resist trying to convert some potential free users into paid users, however, noting that: “It is important for users to remember that AVG Free does not protect against the full range of today’s web-borne threats. For complete protection, users should consider AVG’s commercial products, which scan for and block threats before they can infect the computer or disrupt the user experience.”

AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 8.0 – and commercial editions - can be downloaded from AVG’s Australian site or from the international site
