AVG not free from June 2008

AVG is a bad antivirus anyways, my friend tested 5 antiviruses with 100 virus pack, and avg showed worse score, what i suggest to you is NOD32 anti-virus, it's really good, even if it's cracked.

 

Yeah, I upgraded to AVG 8 and the updates are still coming for free.

 

I agree with wisdomtool with the cracked statement. I personally would have a big problem with using a cracked virus scanner.
I'm paranoid and would be afraid they'd have put some sort of keylogger, trojan, etc, there with the crack.

 

Yes I agree. Currently I am using NOD32 cracked version and it is working simply great. My system is virus free since last 2 years. BTW I've got my NOD32 license for 45,000 years . Therefore no tension at all from antivirus side.

 

I didn't have to worry about these things anymore, I don't use windows. Why not switch to a non-virusy os?

 

Damn! I just switched to AVG as it's good and free. If it's true, I'll try Kaspersky. :/

 

I remember one of their past major upgrades made me think you had to upgrade to the paid version. I dug around awhile and realized it was still free.

 

IF AVG goes to a paid version, I will pay for it!!

 

I also got a popup but just closed it immediately without reading it like I usually do with popups. That would surely suck big time if they discontinue the free version

 

damnbit i love AVG been using it for more then a year now. i would hate it when they start asking money for it

 

Lets see if it happens because I am using its free version..... If it will happen the I will look for the best alternative and how can one be sure of such news.... I have to look for it on avg website whether they have declared this or not... Cant believe on someone's word easily.... Don't mind

 

doesnt matter.it sucks.kaspersky rocks.it detetcs every thing

 

Kaspersky has free trail offer only, right? How many days the trial offer last?

 

Were you able to update to 8 for free? When I tried, they were asking for a payment of $52. Is there a free option for AVG 8 too? I could not find any yet.

 

I have moved to kaspersky few months ago and glad about it. Lot better than AVG and I can tell that if they stop the Free edition then go for kaspersky. you can buy one year for 60$ license or 3 years for 120$.

or use the trial with a trial resetter lol

.

 

AVG saved my butt dozens of times. If they do away with the free version, I'll pay for it.

 

There's hundreds of quality AV apps to use that are free.

 

How annoying is this. I really like AVG and have been using ever since I have had this laptop. It's just a bit frustrating, If I wanted a paid solution I would have used Norton from the get go.

 

avira antivir is free for personal use and topped recent independent antivirus tests

been using it for over a year with no problems.
