Hello vivienne;

What make and model of Netbook? In some cases, that might be correct.

But you're right to be suspicious. Plenty of good, free AV software out there.

This SAMSUNG NP-NC110 model?. It will run AVG Free (slowly)
Any 'Netbook with N550 dual core Atom CPU is a good choice. Better if you upgrade to 2GB of RAM.
