Free Ride is Over for AVG Antivirus - Protect Yourself!

28th November 2006

For home users, I’ve long recommended AVG Free Antivirus as a way to protect home users without spending any unnecessary money. Well, they’ve decided to abandon their free home users, and my kids’ computer started getting a popup telling them they have to buy the full version by January 1st.

Well I’ll be darned if I’m going to pay $30 or more for their AV software every year, and I already know that I hate the free McAfee that comes for no charge with Comcast. Therefore, I’m going to install this free AV software to test, with my kids as the guinea pigs, and I’ll let you know know how it goes!

    Hi Scott,
    Your neighbor down the street. How did the free AV software work for Michael’s computer. I still have the same antivirus you installled on my laptop. Norton keeps asking me to renew however you disconnected it as apparently it was conflicting with the other programs. Should I continue to ignore their request?
    Hope all is well with you.

    Bob

    Update -

    I’ve added Avast to my wifes computer, my kids, and recommended it to several friends. It seems to be working fine, catching occasional viruses, and it’s free. If you have Avast, or any other antivirus program, then you should uninstall Norton. because you only need one.
