Generally you shouldnt run 2 Firewall / Antivirus / Anti-Spyware applications in the same time (AV and AntiSpy apps with active realtime protection I mean). This usually leads to some kind of conflict (BSOD, unable to log into Windows etc..). Also disabling some application doesnt have to help because the app. drivers causing the conflict are still present on the PC. Whether to keep ZA suite or not I won't advice you, it is up to you (However you can combine ZA Firewall with AVG without FW and so..)

Finger2208> There are exceptions which arent in conflict for example I know that Spybot isnt in conflict with AVG IS, same for Ad-aware. If you do not encounter any problems you can let it be, but if some problem appears (doesnt have to appear immediately) it should be one of the first things to check out.

Btw Firewall applications are probably in conflict every time.

Sorry it took so long to reply but had to work today and just finished clearing snow.
I am using Zone Alarm and it could be there is a conflict with ZA, not sure. I may try to disable ZA and try AVG 8 again when I have time.
Maybe I should consider using AVG Internet Suite and remove ZA, or use ZA Suite and remove AVG.
Any thoughts about this?

Had the same problem with the complete scan. Showing a mass of trojans, viruses etc.
Did a scan with SuperAntiSpyware and 7.5. Clean, not even a lousy cookie.
Every time I reboot---a new network found.
Speed has been so so. Most of the time it's not bad at all then slows down some. Kinda up and down.
v. 8 does not seem to like MailWasher Pro for some reason either. Keeps losing internet connection even though it's set up to allow all. With 7.5, no problem.
But the last thing that irks me to no end is that damn toolbar.
I have a license to AVG w/ Firewall. Perfect. Ran it with SuperAntiSpyware and WinPatrol Plus. Plain and simple without all the BS. Very low resources.
This Monster they created now is something else.
Thanks but no thanks. When 7.5 is gone, so am I.

Important notice
As AVG Anti-Rootkit is now only included with commercial versions of AVG 8.0. Updates for AVG Anti-Rootkit Free will no longer be available.

If you are still interested in AVG Anti-Rootkit download, you can download it from the AVG Free Advisor website.

I agree with TeMerc on this crap
why in the world a security program company
who can pay their bills without adding this disgusting
toolbar into the program is whack plain whack.
I will not be recommending AVG to anyone as well
as other programs that go into the dark hole
and TeMerc, thank you for the Bill info on
his opin on toolbars could not agree more with him!!!

said by danny9 :

Yes, I'm sure hayc as well as myself know its there.
It's the idea in general.
Besides it's not just the toolbar. As my earlier post stated, just to many bugs and alot heavier.
AVG 7.5 was very good. They can keep v.8 with all the add ons I don't really need. That's if they even get all the bugs fixed.
