"It doesn't come with a virus; it IS a virus!"
Version: AVG Security Toolbar 1.0
Pros
Not a single one! I wish I could give it a NEGATIVE 5 stars!
Cons
This program creates a file called toolbar_log.txt that becomes HUGE! On two of my PCs, it took up ALL of the free space on C:. On another it blew up to 22GB, and on another, this file was "only" 2 GB, but it had over 19,000 fragments! It made it impossible to defrag all of my C: drives.
Summary
If an individual released a program that did what this does, he would be sent to prison, and rightly so. My advice if you have this rotten piece of half-baked crapware is to uninstall it immediately using Add/Remove Programs, find the file "toolbar_log.txt" (it's location will be in your defrag report) and delete it, empty your Recycle Bin, and THEN run defrag.

"It Comes With A Virus"
Version: AVG Security Toolbar 1.0
Pros
none - couldn't use it.
Cons
While downloading this toolbar, my anti virus detected a virus.
I just thought it was a conflict and continued. Nope, stupid me.
I couldn't uninstall it at first and tried many times. Today I had
success. So be warned. It affected ie9 and it was slow as can be.Summary
I do not recomment this product to anyone. If you should decide to download it, then listen to your anti virus as it is telling you
the truth. Beware of virus.
