    Hello guys,
    I purchased AVG INTERNET SECURITY 7.5 few days ago.My license key is valid for 2 years.
    Do you think AVG is completely reliable and trusted upon ??
    Can AVG protect me from viruses, spywares, hackers, and etc things.

    Please advise or should i kick out AVG from my laptop and get a new one.

    Thanks

    I have tried some time ago the trial version and it was ok...

    Keep up with daily updates from it and also updates for your windows version.

    I recommend System Suites. It has been super reliable for me and I have never had a problem since I started using it.

    AVG is pretty good. Have it updated daily and I don't think you should have any issues. I've used it a bit but then I've found NOD32 which is the best for my needs.

    AVG is good but my system was polluted by a virus that is more powerful than AVG..then i had to format it and i lost all my data. I now use McAfee. I think it's better

    It doesn't eat too much resource of your PC.

    AVG free is fine. I don't know why you bothered paying extra for their anti spyware, firewall and spam protection version...

    AVG (free) and Sygate Personal Firewall are all I use, I've had 2 viruses in the last 10 years. Both were 'let in' through my stupidity, one did nothing, one wiped out my drive (but I had a daily backup from the day before!) :)

    I am using AVG Free edition version 7.5.516. I don't think so that we need to buy AVG because AVG Free edition is enough to protect our system ;)
