End of Support for AVG 6.0

Grisoft announces the end of support for AVG version 6.0 effective on December 31, 2004 for technical reasons. This version has been available since 1999. Its structure does not allow for further improvements planned for version 7 nor improvements in detection techniques expected to come in the future.

End of support means we will no longer provide program updates or Virus Database updates for version 6.0 and therefore, within days, this version will not protect against new virus outbreaks!

Current AVG 6.0 users should upgrade to AVG 7.0. Information on upgrading to version 7.0 can be found at http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_upgrade.php.

That's a pity, I've used AVG Free a lot.

It is a shame, ive used it on one of my machines for a long time.

As they say all good things have to come to an end:(

AVG Free is still around and the next version is curently in beta (version 7.0) and will be available shortly (in November)....nothing has changed except that 6.x will soon be done. That notice only applies to people using AVG 6.0...not AVG Free Edition. All AVG Free Edition users have to do is install it when it becomes available.

Keep your eye on this page:

The new free v7.0 edition should be announced here, when it's available. If you're in a big hurry, you can be a BETA TESTER for v7.0.
