My free AVG is being discontinued, can anyone recommend a
good free one?

Just upgrade to version 7, it's free as well.

AVG7 is a total pain and is incompatible with Mailwasher.
The problem is that AVG7 wants to log on to the pop3 email server and
check emails on the server and I can't see any way of disabling this.
So I've dumped AVG7 and I now use AntiVir Personal Edition

Another good reason to dump MailWasher.

I use MW with AVG without a problem.  The "trick" I have found is to simply
disable Bouncing in MW's config.
