Antivirus for W2K?

[Tim Walters]

My antivirus program has recently stopped support for W2K. Can anyone
recommend one? Thanks

Avast.com The free version continues to work well after several

Sure the program runs ,,, the question is whether the virus definitions and
protections are updated in a regular and timely fashion.
