Real User Review:Name: mdgoose Location: Baltimore, MD Review Summary : Don't even think about it!!! Review : I bought this product from Amazon and it worked worked fairly well on our computers at first but it was slow as all get out. A few months later when I tried to download the updated version, it did not want to load onto our computers. I finally got it onto my computer. It slowed my computer down to the point where it took 8-10 MINUTES to change pages. AVG refused to help unless I paid almost as much as I paid for the system. I finally had to go to Dell, who had me open up in SAFE mode and delete this product. My computer was running as fast as ever once I got rid of AVG. Now the old version was outdated but the updated version wouldn't work on our computers. I only had the product 5 months. Think they would refund the remainder of the 2 years? Fat chance. Their tech support is terrible, outdone only by their customer service. Apparently I'm not the only one having a problem. Use at your own risk.
Name: Patrick Curren Location: The Happy Dream Review Summary : Junk Review : I used the free AVG software for many years with no problems and no viruses. They discontinued it so I bought this version. I had problems getting it installed but finally prevailed. For over a year I kept getting a "system 32" error. Then a month ago I could no longer use the AVG virus software. I could no longer execute hard drive virus scans. I wrote to AVG support who gave me a convoluted method of sending them the data that outlined what software programs were being run on my computer. I sent that information and never heard from them since. I uninstalled and reinstalled and experienced even more errors. I tried uninstalling for the last time and I could not even get the software to uninstall. I loaded a different virus software program from a different vender, ran the virus scan and found 4 viruses. Then I was able to uninstall the AVG virus software. I no longer experienced the "system 32" errors. I recommend staying away from this junk. It's a rip off and you will lose your hard drive to a virus.
Name: Paul M. Funk Location: Decatur/Huntsville, Al Review Summary : AVG Internet Security Software Review : It was two years ago, that I bought a HP HDX9010NR 20.1 inch portable computer at CompUSA. They recommeded the AVG software, so I bought my first security software. It was v7.5 and with the CD included, I was able to install it in short order. My old CPQ computer, would at times, require a full backup, as I got various virus(s) and this would take about (8) hours to download everything again. I soon learned, a faster way (<20 minutes), to recover on the CPQ. After the CompUSA recommendation, I loaded the AVG 7.5 on my new computer. I use a dialup=[...], at around $8.00/month, as most of my work does not need to be fast, and so I can save a little money, since my retirement eight years ago. But... my data that I download off the internet, does need to be done everyday for sure, except on the weekends. I always buy at least two identical computers, sometimes even, five of the same model. In fact, we have five old HP's from the early to mid 1980's, that we still run every Friday nite, with our own programs for (4-6) hours. The secret to long lasting computers, is to have UPS's installed, and to always inplug them, when not using them in case of an electrical surge brownouts, or even lighting. We use a Christmas tree remote controls, to assure, the main electrcal lines are indeed off, plus all the UPS's switches, and even the computer switches are off too, when they are not in operation. So 1980 to 2009=29 years and still the original five computers, are in perfect running shape, as in "brand new". These old computers are not on the internet, however, and are not "windows" and so have no security problems or attacks. Recently AVG wanted me to upgrade, for free, to v8.5 as my two years, on 7.5 had not yet expired. I tried twice, and with dialup and Vista Ultimate, I failed every time, at around the two hour download mark. As my contract, was soon over, I decided to buy the AVG v8.5 on a CD, so I could download quickly. The best price, I could find was {{AMAZON.COM}}, and so my 3 computers version and 8.5 was quickly shipped by Amazon. AVG about that time notified me, that my two year contract, was about to expired, yet Amazon thru USPS deliverd the v8.5 just in time (JIT). Later AVG gave me an extra month, to buy from them, before cutting me off, but I was up and running by then. Having the CD makes the download much faster, and I more than likely, could not download the new AVG, due to my dialup's slow speed with Vista/Netscape. Many times the old 7.5 would yield a popup window saying, my E-Mail virus protection and my firewall were not installed. Now, with the v8.5, I am fully protected in all items listed, in the AVG main window. One word of caution, is in the update and searching through your computer files, can take up to two hours when scanning your whole computer. I had it set, to do that at 22:00 each night, and that is way too much and too often. I have since cut that back, to only once per month. I try to go to lunch, at a restaurant, and come back in say two hours, and she will be done scanning. Your computer can get extremely slow, if that task is done in the background, while you are surfing the net. All and all, AVG appears to me to be an excellent product, and I would give it a full five stars for their technology and constant updates of their latest protection improvements. After reading, all the other folks discussions, about other security products/systems coupled with others own AVG ratings, I am sure that I have the best system available. My two new HP 9010's computers have, dual hard disks, and also have a unique recovery {Restore points}. I have used several these times. but that is part of the Vista Ultimate system/HP system, which is fine too. I also bought from Amazon.com the books on Vista, Office 2007 and Excel to serve as backup references for us. One unique problem, that I did have, is that on rare occasions the computer would lockup completely. In fact, the first weekend she locked with the familar spinning circle forever. I did everything, to unlock the computer, and even drove across town to Books a Million to find the answer in a reference book to unlock. No book had the answer. I finally used my brain power, and even pulling the power cord she kept spinning. I said you {idiot}, you must kill that darn computer, yet the battery is still powering it on. I disconnected all the extras; like printer, dual coolers, modem, and my three floppy Sony drives, and turned the computer upside down, on my couch. I released the battery, and it fell out, and it quit spinning circles. I had killed my computer!! Later, I found that if I had pressed, the on-off button for five seconds long, the darn computer would have re-started itself. When I graduated in 1960, from one of the finest engineering colleges (Ch.E.) in the USA, we did not have a computer, and now I have (15) computers myself. I even own Viscalc Software 1980 version, that was the pre-Excel software, that Bill Gates bought to build his Excel product line and empire of MSFT. In the end, software, is more valuable, and worth the money, if it does the job; if it doesn't it is worth absolutely nothing. Believe me, AVG appears to be worth the price, at Amazon.com. I have never been disappointed with the items I have bought at Amazon.com nor at Northern [...]. Almost all my computers and printers are HP's. Why not the best? You will not be disappointed. I hope this rather lengthly discussion has been an aid to you. Data Eater Financial Wizard Center of Excellence
