If you are using AVG already, yes it's a nice update.
If you aren't using anything, I'd go with MSE over AVG, just because I am starting to like Microsoft products, but they are basically equal. If you have a paid product like NOD32, then no, don't update to AVG. |

I tried it. It is nice, but too touchy; went to avast! free. It is more friendly ..

Yes, I'm running 8 Free right now. I tried avast a while ago and wasn't thrilled with it.

Hi Dreamliner,
Is the AVG9 still have all those popups? That was the single reason that I moved away from it, and started using Avira free. Heeter |

What popups are you talking about? I used to use AVG all the time, since before 8, and don't remember anything about popups.

MSE is one of the best AV apps you can get now
![]() Easily on par with NOD32 and Kaspersky, surpases AVG Commercial with ease. MSE is Forefront Client Security for free

Unless you want to show some stats to back it up. |

I am saying if you want to make statements about a product back it up with proof.
I have tried MSE and think it sucks as it missed a lot of the test viruses I setup for it to catch. But, that is only my opinion. |
