This was very interesting reading, thank you. I'm going to look for a review of the paid versions next.

PC Magazine recently reviewed both programs. Here is their review of Avast 4.8: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,2282699,00.asp and their review of AVG 8.0: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,2291382,00.asp I personally do not use either, since I just bought a Dell laptop, which came with 3 years of Trend Micro PC - Cillin. I will have to upgrade the AVG 7.5 on my kids computer to one of those soon though.

What web site can I go to so I can check the ratings of some of these anti virus programs?

Avast isn't rated that well even though the free version might have more features than free AVG. That's just something to consider. I'm not trying to start an arguement about which is better though.
