Forget AVG 7.0 Free version.
Avast has more features, better Support team… :slight_smile:
By the way, nobody in AVG says if the version 7.0 will be free. Probably not… :stuck_out_tongue:

But why would you want to use 2 differnt AV’s? Wouldnt it just be better to use one and use an online scanner like tredmicro? Because that is the only thing that you would be using the other AV for anyways?

And that means that you will not use as much ram driving these programs :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

  • Why to use 2 different AV’s to do a system scan ? Do have a layered defense.

  • Better to use online scan ? well, they are indeed always Up to date, and they do a really good job, but many people don’t like to stay online that long, or find it to much work to browse and login etc…to do a simple scan

  • More ram useage having 2 scanners ? Don’t think so…every one knows that you can have only 1 resident shield running (monitor), so when the other scanner is “off” he uses no Ram until he has to do a scan…he only takes a little hardisk space, waiting and sitting there to be used. And when you use your backup scanner, its nesecarry do disable ALL running monitors & shields.

I totally agree with Waldo.

Finally AVG said something…
The 7.0 version (and so on) will not be freeware.
The old 6.0 version now called AVG Free Edition will continue (with less features than 7.0 version, only in English)…
As we can see, stay with avast :wink:

Mantra,

PLEASE don’t leave us for AVG. What’s all the good about AVG that avast! can’t meet or beat?

I hope to keep seeing you around here! If not I hope you’ll at least come back sometime and let us know how AVG compares.

Take care,
Jarron
