Free Vista-compatible anti-virus client
Avast! is an antivirus application that is free for non-commercial use, and
offers adequate protection for the average home user.
Consisting of three components, it covers the most common areas of infection
and provides regular updates to ensure that its protection is current.
The On Access Scanner scans all files being opened, read and written in real
time. It also includes a behaviour blocker for analysing and preventing any
unusual behaviour that may originate from a virus.
If you think a virus has infected your PC, simply run the On Demand Scanner

It also comes with a Virus Chest for storing infected or suspicious files.
