AVG Free is history?
 
it's a piece of shit anyway but it no longer updates virus definitions and i don't see AVG Free anymore on their site.

what's a good free anti-virus program?

http://free.avg.com/

maybe you got an old version, hence no updates for it

Jim_Gunn 06-13-2009 12:25 AM

I switched to AVG free this year from Avast. Still working for me with updates.

I think you can probably work out a few things yourself if you link some of the words you've used there together:

"free", "piece of shit", "no longer updates".

I use Bitdefender AV, it costs about $30 a year. It's a bit pathetic if you're not willing to spend that on looking after your own kit.

Oh, I also have a firewall on my router, have never had a single serious virus issue in 10 years.

I don't use any free antivirus but Avira Antivir is better than AVG according to http://www.av-comparatives.org/

My girlfriend uses AVG and it's pretty bad. I've been using Eset Smart Security in the office and I haven't had any problems in a while.

Unfortunatly the new AVG doesn't work with older OS (Windows ME), I would need it for some customers

Try Avast ....the best anti virus in this moment

Still updates and works here. I don't use it alone though. I use other scanners along with it. Can't be too sure nowadays.

Neither have I and I ride the net bareback.

AVG is good. Avast is better and is also free.

Horny Dude 06-13-2009 08:56 PM

Forget free, if you want decent protection shell out some money. I recommend Kaspersky, best one in the game IMO!

Jim_Gunn 06-13-2009 08:58 PM

Avast has that annoying yearly renewal policy. And the nag window would never go away for me even though I re-registered.

phypon 06-13-2009 10:23 PM

Avira, it's lightweight and it works. Someone suggested ClamWin, I haven't tried, but I'm going to check that one out.

woj 06-13-2009 10:37 PM

there is nothing wrong with AVG... :2 cents:
