is avg free any good? Updated with a few little problems.
 
My comp came with mcafee security center already on it for a free 90 day trial. I remember everybody telling me that it sucks ass i need to upgrade. i had avg pro on my old comp but it was so fucked up from porn and limewire it couldn't be saved. had to do a system reboot. now i want to take care of my new one, and i have heard some good things about avg pro. best part is the free. are there other really good ones for free out there? i googles free adware but came up with tons of pay sites.

I've been using it for years and never had a problem.

Its OK. anti-virus programs are a bane to any level of system rescources. ditch it and don't get the virus porn in the first place, or let any pop-up clickers on your computer!

then just use housecall.trendmicro.net for the occasional check.

AVG is awesome and as long as you stick with the free version its pretty light as far as resourses go. I dig it, in fact one of the first things i do before a PC leaves my hands is install mozilla and AVG on it.

Just use mozilla. you will see like 89635 time less pop ups anyway. I use nothing for a pop up blocker but SP2 and very rarely do i see ----.
