i m not puting NAV07 ahead of KAV, i said go for it if u want no nonsence antivirus. in other words, something which u just install & forget. If u leave NAV07 at default settings it will hardly bug u ever, & will hardly slow your computer if u have more then 512 MB RAM

They are discontinuing support for the older 7.1 version. They have new 7.5 version which is free and is supported.
