in my experience..avg is the bad ntivirus coz it cant detect the virus... avast is just ok... but it also cant detect the certain virus.. so go for kaspersky.. it's better.. but if compared to the avast.. when we download sumting..avst can detect when in the middle of download process.. but kaspersky just can detect after the download is completed... so choose which is better for ur pc....

AVG uses low resources, good for low-medium end computer range...
but, what I don't like is poor detection rate sad.gif

Agree.

But despite the fact that AVG sometimes detects stuffs which others don't, and others detect stuffs AVG don't, AVG is fairly ok.

Yet, I still think that AVG can barely survive from virus attacks, or let me put it this way, it's not capable as other leading/free AVs in providing security protection.

Just IMHO though.

I must agree. AVG is slowly becoming like Norton. Popular but less reliable... I never depended on AVG. AntiVir is perfect! (Just a punk only!) Cheers!

Yeah, but those ignorant ppl have a perception that AVG is able to remove brontok but doesn't know the fact that the registry is not fixed doh.gif

Ah. Now that is some news I never knew... AVG is really a half-past-six AV. Removes things halfway... wow... LOL.

Removing the physical file but not the registry. If it is not half-past-six, then...? LOL.
