We're used to seeing models from above, so the mind can more easily be fooled by pictures taken looking down than at eye level. Models are usually lit by a lamp, so you'd expect to see sharp, directional shadows and bright, almost harsh light.

Antivirus software is as essential to your computer as oil is to your car. Unfortunately the cost of maintaining up-to-date virus software has jumped almost 35% in the last year, and as viruses become more complex and efficient that cost will only continue to rise.
Thankfully there is a better, less costly alternative available. Avast Antivirus uses the powerful ALWIL scanning engine and packs it into an easy to use interface. All updates can be handled automatically, keeping your computer safe from the latest viruses and worms.
Avast 4 Home is offered FREE to home users and can be downloaded here
