防毒小紅傘–AntiVir，有眾多的愛用者，因為它對系統的執行效能干擾極小，偵測病毒的能力也不錯，阿榮認為它最大的特色是：可以針對誤判的檔案設定排除，這是許多防毒軟體作不到的！功能方面：可以偵測病毒、木馬、蠕蟲、惡意自動撥號程式、釣魚程式、Rootkits，個人版可以永久免費使用，安裝完，雖然有使用期限，但會隨著自動更新而往後延，如果英文閱讀沒問題的話，目前推薦安裝這套免費的防毒軟體，如果菜英文，則建議安裝有中文介面的 avast 也不錯，不過會比較耗資源。

小紅傘阿榮版是啥？
有鑑於小紅傘日益受到歡迎，官方的更新伺服器常常頻寬塞爆而無法更新，阿榮特別把小紅傘的最新病毒碼跟更新檔包在一起，成為自製的安裝檔，這樣一來，下載安裝後就已經是較新的病毒碼了，藉此可以達成頻寬的分流，請多多利用！如果想要自己手動更新病毒碼的讀者，可以直接下載「最新病毒碼手動更新檔」，不必解壓縮，用小紅傘直接手動更新即可！（文章来源-阿荣福利味）

Disable the Annoying Popup
The free edition of Avira AntiVir comes with an nagging popup window that rears its ugly head after each update (usually) every day, begging you to consider upgrading to the premium version. The popup is easy to dismiss, but annoying nonetheless. I understand that Avira needs to make money, but every single day is excessive.

Windows 2000 / Windows XP Pro
Go to Start > Run.
Type gpedit.msc and click OK.
Navigate through User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System.
Double click "Don't run specified Windows applications".
Enable it and click show.
Add "avnotify.exe".
Click OK on all open windows.
Restart.

Alternate:
Start > Run: secpol.msc (You can also access this program through 'Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy' this is useful if it is easier the location of this rather than the file name)
Right click "Software Restriction Policies," Choose "New Software Restriction Policies." (Skip this step if there are subfolders in Software Restriction Policies already.)
Right Click "Additional Rule" folder > New Path Rule.
Where it says Path, Type the path of avnotify.exe on your computer, or use the Browse button to find it. (On XP64 using a default install of Avira, the path is: (C:\Program Files (x86)\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic\avnotify.exe)
Make sure the "Security Level" Dropdown menu is selected as "Disallowed"
If you would like to make sure it went through correctly, open the Additional Rules folder, and verify the path and security level.
Enjoy the absence of nag windows.
Windows XP Home
Boot into Safe Mode.
Log into an account with administrator privileges.
Open [driveinstalledon]:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic.
Right click on avnotify.exe and go to Properties > Security > Advanced.
Click on Edit-> Traverse Folder / Execute File-> deny-> OK.
Repeat for all users.
Reboot your computer normally.

Windows Vista Business/Ultimate
Open the control panel through Start > Control Panel.
Go to Administrative Tools > Local security policy.
Click on Software Restriction Policy > Action > Create new restriction policy.
Right-click, and go to additional rules > new path rule.
Click Browse and navigate to C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic and double-click avnotify.exe.
Set the security level to Disallowed.
Click apply and OK.

Windows Vista Home Premium
Go to C:\Program Files\Avira\AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic\avnotify.exe.
Right-click avnotify.exe and go to Properties > Security.
Under the group or username SYSTEM, click edit.
Put a checkmark under the DENY column for "read and execute".

If you want to disable the splash screen during startup:
Open regedit and navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
double-click avgnt and add /nosplash to the end of the path (ex. /min /nosplash)
