For someone. Need Win Me support. AVG does, AVAST is stopping support 6/30/07. McAffee 2006 does not run right on the PC so I need an alternate. OneCare is XP SP2 and up.

Look no further than ClamAV, IMO. 

http://www.clamwin.com/
http://w32.clamav.net/

It was originally developed for *nix systems with (AFAIK) a
focus on
protecting mail servers, but it's progressed far beyond that
now.  Great
virus response time, phishing protecting, html attacks,
etc.
