| 817514 | 2009-10-08 04:53:00 | A Query... Bottom line of desktop Icons is my Security stuff. MS Security (New), Rogue Remover, CCleaner, SpybotS&D, Malwarebytes, A Squared Free, Avast, Smart Defrag. This is more than enough. Monthly I run thro the lot. Query...Should I get rid of Avast? It does seem to take longer to fully boot up since I installed it, It looks as if Avast is checking each program as it installs after I switch the computer on. PJ |

| 817516 | 2009-10-23 09:48:00 | Has anyone looked at (dare I say it?) AVG 9? OK, pass the soap and water! Seriously though, I, like many others, dumped AVG when support for v. 7.5 ceased and switched to Avast which was then very much flavour of the month. Now that Avast, too, has fallen mightily from grace I wonder if AVG has redeemed itself with the new version. |
