    Who said AVG wasn't preferred? Theres plenty of threads here in Softwareworld recommending it.

    Imo the best free AV is Avast! not AVG. But for the masses I install AVG on their computers because AVG is easier to use.

    I like that av but find it veyr ugly so i use nod32 which does the job as well or better and looks better. also low on ram usage, using about 9,500kb total of all of it's peices (that i see in task manager, there could be more).

    do you not have to reinstall NOD32 ever month though? due to some serial issue?

    @TheRealDave I'm also using KAV5. But for free AV's on clients computers I install AVG. Unless they're knowledgable then it's Avast! all the way.

    I've been using AVG Free Version for about 6 months. I haven't had any viruses or Trojans. I do scan with the online scanners once in a while and I also run Trojan Hunter. AVG updates quite regularly too!
