I'd rather go on websites without worrying that my PC will get a virus and be slowed down long term. I used AVG years ago but wouldn't go near it now. It's a false economy in my experience.

No need for 3rd party bloatware, Windows Defender is good enough, designed by Microsoft to work with Windows, no annoying popups to try and get you to upgrade and pay more

If you must, then Avast has been shown to be better than AVG, Avast came out better off when they took over AVG

I remember this and Zone Alarm. Do you think using Windows Defender is enough?

Actually it's Avast that now own AVG. I'm an IT consultant and AVG partner and on all of my AVG portal to monitor my customers is now labelled as the AVAST Business Portal.

Avast bought them in 2016 not long after avg decided to sell their users browser and search data.

Used to use them well before that but there were plenty of other free ones out there including Avast and Avira which always got better scores in the antivirus tests than them, probably changed now with them being bought.

I think you won't be able to install Windows defender on a Mac computer. Not sure though.

It was getting quite bad, but they trned it'up' and now its catching more stuff but giving lots of false positives too.
So, you get what you pay for (or get free )

heat

I must be doing something wrong as my AVG just stays on AVG Free and doesn't change to AVG Internet Security 2018

Looks good to me thanks

OP! The licence code says its 2018 I'm assuming this is just a typo.

Same here

I think now that Microsoft have got their game sorted with Windows Defender there's not really much need for a separate AV piece of software. Will still vote Hot as it's a paid for product which you're getting for free.

Doesn't actually seem to be a year unless i'm reading this wrong? Mine says it expires Feb 27th 2019. Still nice though, always used AVG.

I wonder why these AV companies are giving their half assed software away...Oh yeah, microsoft have the edge now. Read up.

Bit denfender comes up as low resource hungry.

this company are a nightmare to cancel - ive had it be confirmed then the next year have it taken again - card company were no use as i'd given the details when I signed up

legitimately a nightmare and put me off this company for life

How ironic, the virus that is an anti-virus

I went to the official AVG website and downloaded the antivirus. Should I type the licence key or copy and paste? I have pasted it. Will try again.

It worked then I have typed in the licence key. Thank you very much

Thank you so much! This worked!
