For many years I have been using free version of AVG as my virus protection . There might be something better now. Should I change to something else? Advise much appreciated. Thanks
I also used AVG for a number of years. Moved over to Avast a while ago and like the fact that it is more lightweight and is less prone to conflict with other programs. Of course the best protection is being smart about the sites you visit, only opening attachments from known sources, and good housekeeping.
BitDefender is above AVG in most cases nowadays, it also runs silently in the background - no annoying popups. I also tried Avast but found it inferior to BitDefender.
