Do you recommend using AVG for preventing or removing the worst of viruses/threats?

Have any say on this?
I plan to download the free trial again, but I wanted to know if it's really that good.

Having commonsense works just fine. Although you do have to pass the basic computer literacy test for it.

Otherwise use an antivirus like the tech retard you are

You can always count on AVG to remove system critical files for you.

Just use the free version of mbam

Thank God not everyone is as retarded as you. Do you realize how dangerous your ways of thinking are? "I don't need an antivirus because I have common sense" is like a driver saying "I don't need to wear a seat belt because I have common sense" or a soldier saying "I don't need to wear protective gear because I have common sense". It's fucking stupid and dangerous.

The effectiveness of the best antivirus software is like below 15%.
>>
>>55131890
You do realise AVs just cross check a known list of malwares? Did you really think AVs will protect you from your OS level vulnerability? Are you below 18?
>>
Install gentoo
bam
no need for an antivirus
antiviruses are a security vulnerability btw, running such a complicated program at such a high privilege level is retarded.

also AVG is trash, if you need a windows AV get avira for free poorfag shit or kaspersky for paid botnet
>>
>>55131981
Source? Oh right, you just made that up.

Here's my source proving Norton provides almost 100% protection. That's A LOT more than 15%.

You are such a computer illiterate retard. Perfect customers for snake oil pieces of shit like registry/driver booster or RAM cleaner.

Go write a decent rootkit on your own and see if your snake oil AV detects it.

NEWS FLASH: It's not in their database

They have a linux client. Its a good ClamAV alternative friend :)

Is Avast any good?

Yeah it's fine, just turn on game mode.
>>
>>55133258
With avast make sure you install in advanced mode and unchrck every last piece of other shit it tries to install beyond what you actually need.
>>
>>55131499
Avoid AVG like the plague.

It mis-identifies HTML-enabled email messages as malicious and deletes any email messages with HTML content in any email client you use on your computer with AVG installed.
>>
I have AVG on one notebook and Avast on the other. both work ok.

AVG runs 8 processes for its protection where as Avast runs only 2 processes.

Personally prefer Avast.

Norton will thrash the living fuck out of ur pc. Ovoid.

I haven't detected anything on Malwarebytes for years now. I don't even think anyone writes serious viruses other than Russians anymore.
