 AVG's Non-Existent Technical Support June 29, 2009
Compudoc (Bayside, NY)
AVOID THIS PRODUCT (or any AVG product) if you think you will need customer support, technical or otherwise. These folks have mastered the art of unfriendly, unhelpful end user response. Should you email them (the only way to establish contact) be prepared for a rapid, automated reply, followed by MANY DAYS without an issue-specific reply. And that reply is likely to direct you to another of their unhelpful links. Even their registration/activation process is delayed and convoluted. THERE ARE MANY SOFTWARE CHOICES IN THIS CATEGORY THAT PERFORM ADMIRABLY AND EMPLOY STAFF WHO PROVIDE PROMPT HELPFUL FEEDBACK TO INQUIRIES. CHOOSE ONE OF THEM!!!
 PROBLEMS WITH AVG June 9, 2009
Robin Stabley (Fort Lauderdale, FL USA)
Difficulty installing AVG but eventually installed on primary and back up pc. Following day both computers crashed. With help my primary is now working after uninstalling AVG and installing a competitive product. I still am unable to get my back up working. Both are on a wireless connection. I think the software may have been used previously as I was given a new product code while in the middle of the first AVG installation.

Grisoft AVG Internet Security 3-User 2-Year Family EditionThis if by far the best family deal for Internet Security especially now that identity protection is included in the package. Grisoft has been providing the best Anti-virus protection to for several years now and I have never had a problem.
 AVG is the best Ive used so far... May 23, 2009
DooDude (Midwest, USA)
In the past Ive used Norton, McAffee & Zone Alarm.
Ive used Zone Alarms Firewall in combination with AVG's Virus/Spyware.
Ive been using AVG's complete package, Firewall/Anti-virus/Spyware for several years & (for me) this is the best Internet Security product Ive used.
No security product is perfect but AVG has done the best job of protecting my PC from the outside world & I feel more secure using this product than any other.
But like all software, AVG isnt for everyone. If your level of PC knowledge is such that you need their 'tech support' to set it up & run, then I strongly suggest you use Norton, McAffee, Zone Alarm, PC Doctor or possibly Micro Softs Live One Care.
Those products are not bad, they are just not as good as AVG. However, they are more simplistic to use.
They are also more intrusive & likely to slow down your computer.
I just gave my neighbor my copy of MS Live One Care that I got for free when I bought a Laptop & its perfect for them. I installed it for them & it will take care of all their needs & they wont have to do anything at all really. Just follow directions...
But if youre a little more computer savvy, AVG is the way to go. Im not an IT guy or an expert by any means but I can work my way through AVG just fine. Its really pretty simple to use but it does have more options than the products mentioned above & those options can be confusing at first.
But those options just give you more control over your PC use & security & its well worth the effort to familiarize yourself with those options.
AVG also searches for root-kit's & now has an Identity Protection function.
For the average PC user, I beleive AVG is the best protection available.
