I was using free version of Avast for the past one year. It will expire in 3

Simply request a new license. There'll be a button to do so if you click on the popup. Avast is available for free, but you will have to renew the license each year. Takes about five minutes time.

Thank you. But Avast is not a good one. Not worth to buy. That is why I am looking for an another one.

yes. Avast is still free. It makes you renew the "free"-ness each year with your email address.

But it's still free. The free download button is usually grey as opposed to green.

I second Richard's suggestion of MSE and would add running Malwarebytes(the free version) once a week for peace of mind.

Shhhh. Not so loud. Never post anything like that on public forums and, more importantly, ...

ALWAYS use genuine software.

All my Windowses began to work way better when I decided to avoid to install any kind of antivirus. On the new PCs it's the very first thing I remove.
I believe it's 10+ years I don't use an antivirus and my PCs work as a charm!
I only keep my firewall on...

Hmm but, I feel my PC is full of Viruses. Even If I delete those (Using Avast anti virus). After some days it will get slow again. So I thought to get an anti virus Smile | :)

I don't know what you mean about "viruses". My colleagues PCs have antiviruses which claim for supposed "viruses" on files they create by themselves.
Learn to inspect the Windows register and avoid to click-'n-run what you receive by e-mail: you'll have a faster PC just because the major slowing app is the Antivirus!

My system is taking much time to load the softwares, for example browsers, paint, word, excel , visual studio etc... so i thought it is because of viruses.
