    "Used It Once Upon A Time"

    June 12, 2012  |   By ElObomo

    Pros

    It's a freebie, don't 'ya know.

    Cons

    Left old editions running on my machine every time it installed a new version - finally had to go into the registry and delete them manually. Wound up with 5 different versions of AVG running simultaneously. That was a deal breaker. For the AVG stooge that monitors comments here - that's what happened and I don't need to go to your freaking blogs to discuss it - fix the blasted thing.

    Summary

    This is the only AV that has a company stooge monitoring all the comments posted here, all the while insinuating they are stupid. I bet you really get the 3rd degree and smartypants insults from their customer service people.
