Re: [slim] Free AVG Anti Virus Software

2011-07-22 Thread aubuti

I used free AVG for a couple years, but then there was one particular
version upgrade that seemed to turn it into a resource hog. So I
dropped it and have been using the free version of Avast, which seems
to have a much lighter footprint.

I have to agree with aubuti. I've used free AVG, paid Norton and McAfee.
I find the free avast! to be a excellent product.

The last review I read in PCPro showed AVG to trap more virus's and
worms than all other comparable products. It was awarded a best buy.

Re: [slim] Free AVG Anti Virus Software

2011-07-26 Thread jfalk

I used AVG Free for years, but noticed the increased resource usage
mentioned above, and also read a very persuasive article to the effect
that Microsoft Security Essentials, now bundled with Windows 7 for
free, is now clearly better than any of the free or pay 3rd party virus
programs.  Has worked very well for me since I took that advice.

If I had read that a few days ago I might not have bothered with
Kapersky - but I have three free copies of that installed on laptops
provided by Barclay's Bank.

Re: [slim] Free AVG Anti Virus Software

2011-08-01 Thread Goodsounds

I spent many years of bouncing between free choices with varying luck
(AVG once bricked a PC after quarantining a key Win file). About six
months ago I bought Norton with multi-PC licenses and can't believe the
difference.

I'm very happy with the resulting performance and capabilities.  Their
tech support is great and I've had far fewer problems of use that with
the others, and I tried most of them. I'm not sure what I thought I was
accomplishing by avoiding the ones with a license fee, the cost was very
modest. Even if the renewal is more, I'll gladly pay it.

Norton? H-H-Happy with ... ?

Well, I guess you learn something new every day. :) I've steered clear
of Norton products for at least the last ten years, but I suppose they
had to get their act together some day. Maybe that day has come.

I used to use AVG, until a newer version seemed to slow things down. I
switched to Microsoft Security Essentials, which seems fine (I never
notice it doing anything, which is good for an AV product).
