I got rid of AVG and installed http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/ Seems to work really well, try it out. Here's a review
Meh.. AVG is a resource hog and is too damn annoying, constantly popping up with 3 windows to update, etc. MS Security Essentials is just a bare bones anti-virus, perfect if you want something that won't allow shady executables to run and won't annoy the hell out of you.Microsoft has a hard enough time catching their own exploits, also most of the fake antivirus programs try their best to look like microsoft's own tools.
I'd sooner go with even the free version of AVG or Avast before I'd touch Microsoft Antivirus (funny since I remember when they had that back in the DOS days.)
The man spokeI guess the better answer would be "Why is the bitch on the computer and not in the kitchen?"
They couldn't find a crack so they downloaded Avast instead.Surprised no one uses Kaspersky! never had a problem so far.
Norton Antivirus is what I use. I think its the best.
