Same guy as the sygate question :P
just wondering - does AVG actively protect against viruses (like Norton Control center?)
Also, does it scan for adware & spyware?
Thanks AGAIN
(you guys r the best :P)

avg > anything from symantec
and just to school you, avg didn't turn into anything, they renamed 7.0 pro to avg 7.0 ESE
marketing :rolleyes:
I like control over my software. I don't care what it is. It needs to say it is what it was when I first installed it. And it did'nt. It changed not only versions, but a whole nother product as well. WITHOUT MY EXPLICIT CONSENT.
That's why I'm opensource. :)
I'm shocked :eek: that the CEO of avg didn't send you a email alerting you that your pirated copy of their AV was changing names
Don't trust the free version - I had three trojans on my system that it didn't spot, even with updates and regular scans. I knew they were there because of my firewall alerts, but that dumb piece of shit prog was completely oblivious. Norton kicked their asses as soon as I installed it. It's worth paying out to get a decent antivirus prog - money well spent.
