What do you think of AVG?

I use it and near as I can tell, it works well.

I like AVG. I use the free version and make sure the latest definition updates are set for auto-download.

Norton was great back in the mid 90s -- now it's a POS, IMHO. A true memory hog and not thorough.

I've been using Grisoft AVG on three WinXP Pro computers for a good long while now without any problems. I'd recommend the purchased version of it, though. The free version gives you updates from an overused server, so they are slow to download, and sometimes the download isn't available.

If you buy it, you get your updates from servers that respond quickly without a problem.

AVG has missed two invasions of my system over the last two months. I found them in standard scans. I use AVG, AdAware SE and Spybot Search and Destroy in combination.
