"Great if you never intend on uninstalling"
Version: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2012 2012.0.2176
Pros
Protects against the bad stuff
Cons
Can never uninstall
Summary
Tried to uninstall from my wife's machine. Still trying. Everytime I think I've gotten it completely out, it returns. Tried the AVG site for a special method of uninstalling - still there. Worse than an actual virus

"Bad support makes for a bad product."
Version: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2012 2012.0.2176
Pros
Free. Easy. Good interface.

No support on free version. Paid Pro version has email support only, and can take days to resolve an urgent issue.
Summary
Stick with the free version if it works for you. I would not spend $2 for the Pro version.

"Efficient and easy"
Version: AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2012 2012.0.2176
Pros
Quick download and faster search, like the safety feature. Scanning is fast and easy. I had AVG years ago when I purchased new laptop Kapersky was installed free for a year, so I switched back. Much better than old version.
Cons
The only thing I don't like is the duplication on the toolbar. I have my toolbar all set up and AVG installed its own. So I had to personalize.
