You have to be careful, the site will keep trying to trick you into downloading a pay version. Read every message carefully.
As always, uninstall existing package first. Accidentally running two packages is very painful.

130R is correct. Upgrade if you can.
If you can't then there is a hack to get some updates for XP - taken from MS's XP based POS system: http://www.zdnet.com/article/registry-hack-enables...

Both my XP PC and my XP VM are still getting updates, but I'll look at the hack, thanks. I only use them for XP only stuff, no real online stuff or web browsing, so AV is not really essential. I'll look at AVG, use to run this years ago but it became a bit bloated, any other AV suggestions?
As long as you use an updated version of Firefox/Chrome and don't visit any dodgy websites you'll probably be ok with browsing. Much like like driving an old/classic car - you'll have less crash protection but if you don't drive like a tt you'll probably be fine
Can't suggest any AVs as I've only used Microsofts own but alternatively could you just leave the machine disconnected from the internet?

Bizarrely a legit Windows XP doesn't get you a free upgrade to Windows 10 and ongoing upgrades.
However a pirate copy of Windows 7 or 8 will do.
