AVG 7.0 free edition

Proto · December 20th, 2004, 21:46

get it here

The major improvement I've seen is that it has stopped complaining about files that weren't actually viruses

I really liked this software, especially 6.0; it uses a lot less resources than my Norton 2003 and seems to be much faster too. 7.0 seems to suck up a bit more juice but still plenty fast. And best of all, it's FREE.

I won't

Avast has always been my favorite. AVG has only became good recently, so that is kinda throwing me off

Ill say its alright. Ive been using it for about a year now and i havent had any problems. It also doesnt seem like it uses any more resources then the old ver. My only problem with AVG is that they dont have a very good virus database (like symantec). I just use www.sarc.com instead.

Well I never tried the 7.0 versions yet. My Windows installation is almost destroyed right now, so I guess it couldn't hurt
