Now I am trying to install the Avira .exe d/load, and getting the foll. error msg:
"Avira Antivir Personal requires at least Windows 2000, SP4 and Update Rollup1. Error code: 20"
I need this protection for my pc ASAP and would appreciate any replies on how to solve this problem. Thanks.

Thank u very much for ur reply. However, I had no previous problem installing Avira, until I just 'restored' my pc from the Restore CD.
There was no previous error msg requesting install of Windows 2000/SP4.
So why now this error msg? Can someone here recommend a relatively effective Antivirus - low on MB resources? Would appreciate replies.
