Version: AVG Internet Security 8.0.87
"Slows down any PC"
Pros: It is loaded with a full arsenal of protection. The interface is a welcome improvement to it's predecesor v7.5. Updates are fast.
Cons: I installed this on my two desktops (XP Home Edition SP2 & Windows Vista Home Premium) and on my laptop (Vista Home Premium). All three were significantly slowed down, at times almost to a stop. I can only think that this is due to the link scanner. I ended up uninstalling it and going back to version 7.5 which still gives my systems excellent protection but uses little memory resources. I guess this time the saying "if it is not broken, don't fix it" applies.
