I am looking for the 4.8 free edition. I am using 5.0 right now and it does slow my computer. I am not a computer pro, so I don’t know how to search out the problem. I would just like to go back to the older version, it worked better on my computer. Please help.
Avast! Home Edition 4.8.1368 http://filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/6635/
Hi
Not sure why Avast 5 is slowing your computer down ???
You Might Want To Try…
1) Uninstall - Avast 5
2) Run The Avast Uninstall Utility From Safe Mode: http://www.avast.com/en-gb/uninstall-utility
3) Delete Alwil Folder From - Program Files ( Note: You will need to Show… Hidden Files & Folders )
4) Reinstall - Avast 5 : http://www.filehippo.com/download_avast_antivirus/ ( Green Button - Top Right! … For the latest version of Avast 5 )
However!
If you really want to revert to Avast 4.8 … FileHippo Has That Too!
