AVG is horrible. I had McAfee Anti-Virus as a trial subscription when I purchased my computer for 15 months. About 2 weeks ago it ran out and I didn't have the money to purchase the renewal subscription. So I decided to go for the AVG Free anti-virus software. My father raves about it and says it's better than Norton. So I put it on my computer. AVG neglected to mention several things about their software. First being, when you download the Free version you're getting their virus software, not anti-virus. My computer is now chock full of viruses and running slower than ever. Two, once you download the software to your computer you cannot uninstall it! It keeps giving me an error message to uninstall it. Three, to uninstall it, you have to call and have a tech remotely do so. So I called and spent a little over an hour on the phone with a tech with a very heavy accent who was very difficult to understand. Finally after about an hour he says, "Okay, I can fix this problem for you. For $129.99 I can uninstall AVG and have full service for one year on your computer." Yes, I would have to pay them $130 to uninstall the program that has successfully crashed my computer. I said screw it, bought the renewal for McAfee and attempted to run a virus scan with that. Oops...AVG won't let the McAfee software open up. Try going to the McAfee webpage...nope it won't load. Try going to the AVG site and click on the link to call AVG..link doesn't work. But don't worry the link to download AVG to my computer still works great. Needless to say, I'm going to have to wipe my computer clean and reinstall the entire operating system. Please, for the love of God do not install AVG onto your computer. Hopefully I save at least one person from making the same mistake I did.
