Re: I've ditched AVG 8

said by Brano:

Wow, after running AVG for maybe 5 years to my full satisfaction I've got rid of it couple days after upgrade to ver. 8.
The fact that it does not allow me to turn certain components off and be nice about it made me decide.
I don't want link scanner! I don't want something to download and scan every link google spits out!
And when I try to disable it the taskbar icon becomes a nasty bitch reminding me something is wrong?!
Needless to say the system was slower than with 7.5 version.

...I was real advocate of AVG, :sigh:, time changes

Now I'm running AVAST which allows me to turn off components I don't need and it's still playing nicely.

... no replies needed, just venting
4 years AVG for me. Licence expires in May and I will not be renewing.

My opinion - AVG has not been too bad up to now but AVG 8 is a TOTAL SUCK!!!!

100% CPU used on first scan. Impossible to get any work done. To hell and back getting rid of it (un-installer would not work properly) then my old AVG 7.5 would not re-install. Neither would KAV free trial.

First scan with NOD32 free trial found 2 Zlob trojan varieties AVG 8 scan missed!

GoodBye AVG!!!!
