Off Topic/ which is better

Avast or Avg?

EDIT: Guess I’ll have to find out myself.

Same company - different skin - underlying code would be pretty much the same.

But as always, insufficient information to give a detailed answer. Avast & AVG have multiple products and you don’t say what you are comparing, apples/oranges.

Just the free AVG.

which is better
Better on doing what?

@Pondus, Mostly scanning.

As DavidR mentioned…underlying code is the same, so scanning is the same.

Yepp as said, scan engine and virus signatures are identical

In short, identical,on the inside, different on the outside

Guess I’ll keep using Avast.
