You could uninstall avast - go to the website - and re-download the latest version... proceed from there ...

You can also get updates on most days so it not bad for free, it also got a link scanner so it tells you if the site is bad

I was a great advocate of AVG from 3.5 to about 7, when it did start to slow down the startup and the scanning took forever... so I switched to AVAST... and hardly know it is working, except when the popup for the update tells me..!... also it has a link scanner too !...

That is my experience too. The slow-down is very marked for older computer with less RAM; on a new machine you probably wouldn't notice anything.

but it is no good to just rely on one to do everything , its more of a combination, my own choice is ,MSE + Malwarebytes + Ccleaner

So you must mean £6 per machine per year or £36 per year for your 6 licences?
