866805 2010-03-13 06:17:00 So, just signed up with slingshot.

With our package, we get a free version of nod32 anti-virus(the full version, I THINK). Trouble is, we already have AVG free installed. Who knows which one is better? Should I uninstall AVG and download nod32, or keep AVG and not get nod32?

Thanks,

Jonathan

866807 2010-03-13 06:28:00 I would second wainuitech and uninstall AVG and try NOD. PinoyKiw (9675)
866808 2010-03-13 06:36:00 Is that package a 30 day trail or is it free with your account for however long your with slingshot? rebels181 (14841)

866810 2010-03-13 07:01:00 I think it's free with my account however long I stay with slingshot. Oh well, away with AVG!!! Just a question though, if I uninstall AVG, will all the viruses quaranteened in the virus vault be released back into the computer, or will they be deleted with the uninstall?

EDIT: just read feersumendjinn's link, and it is free for 30 days, then $5 a month. still worth it, or is AVG better?

866811 2010-03-13 07:09:00 The viruses will be deleted (t'would be a mean trick to reinstall them, eh?).
Nod definitely better, is recommended by everyone here.

Check here (chillisoft.co.nz) for prices I think it's cheaper for a 2 year licence

So you'd reccomend paying $5 a month for nod32, yes or no?
