Thats me convinced, AVG did a good job but I like avasts boot time scan

Avast better than AVG, but Avira better than Avast.

I think it's fair to say the consensus round here is that the once great AVG has really gone downhill over the past year or so, slowing down systems and hogging resources almost as much as serious bloaters like Norton. Most would advise either Avira or Avast as a freebie replacement.

I use Avast and it's never given me a problem.
