Saw Jases post and thought I'd start a thread linking all the more popular free AV's, firewalls etc.
Maybe Claw can stickify it?

Ever had your AV pop up and tell you that such 'n' such a file is/has a virus? But, then wondered whether it was a false positive or not?

Just spotted a nice little jobbie.
Says it updates drivers.... Free....
<a href="http://download.cnet.com/SlimDrivers-Fr ... 79940.html" target="_blank">Linky</a>
Seems to work, though the free version only lets you download one at a time, but it does do all the hunting for you.
Uses cloud technology. Sounds a bit wet to me.....
