My computer has Alzheimer's disease

First I installed ESET NOD32 2.7. I'd had enough of AVG free edition. Then yesterday, I uninstalled version 2.7 and installed version 3.0 because I don't know why, the older version can't auto-update.

Today, the red Automatic Updates icon popped up in system tray,
"Windows security alerts from security center. ESET NOD32 antivirus system 2.70 reports that it might be out of date."

What the... The text displayed in hover box above antivirus icon clearly reads 'ESET NOD32 Antivirus™ 3.0.670.0 Virus signature database: 3644 (20081126)'. Out of date my foot! Stupid computer is so old it has grandpa's memory.

Do not use AVG anymore, I stopped using it a few years ago.

Use AVAST Home Edition instead:

It is good.
