Is AVG free Anti Virus software worth downloading?

no.. i would say that go for ESET NOD32 and you can find free username and password on internet of 3 months license.i have used AVG 8.5 but it was useless and was totally helpless against regsvr.exe virus.i am using NOD32 for 1year now and have not faced any problem. happy mylotting

I used it for quite a while and it worked pretty well for me. I didn't notice any increase in junk-mail or anything like that. As a matter of fact, it was recommended to me by someone I know who works on computers. The only reason I got rid of it was that my internet provider offered McAfee for a small monthly price and it is constantly updated. AVG free can only upgrade so much and it not as good as a paid version like the one I now have, but if you are looking for a free virus protection, I feel it is a good one to go with.

i think it is good. Actually that's about all I use. For a free program it is really good, but then nothing is totally fool proof! I've been using it for quite awhile and it seems to be okay. I haven't heard much bad about it, but I have heard some good about it!

Ive got it, and i think its pretty good. But i dont think it has an anti spam, so it wont protect your junk folder in email (although most emails have there own anti spam these days). It has a good virus scan, and its annoys me less than norton (for some reason, i have never had norton installed on this laptop i write to you with now, but it just scans my pc, and tells me i have something ridclous like 5000 warnings or something and that i need to upgrade to clean them. Honestly, if it happens many more times, im going to write a letter of complaint to norton). But ye, its ok, i mean, its found infections and took them out for me, as well as tell me about unsafe websites, but i am not sure if it is as effective as something like norton, or another one you pay for, but overall, i like it.

Not much more to say. I have higher rate of incoming junk mail since i've installed it on my computer.

yes its a good product ive been using it, i havent got any virus yet and if there is a virus AVG will warn you about it its pretty fast and good quality also :D but Microsoft security essentials is probably better just a suggestion :D :P

well because its free yes go for it. its ok but not the best.

AVG was good when it was initially launched. Now it does not even detect the new threats. Personally I am using Free MalwareBytes and Panda's Cloud Antivirus. If I not contented with a scan. I download SuperAntiSpyware and Dr Web. I do this when there is a serious infection detected.

If you have no anti-virus software, then I would highly recommend grabbing something and AVG seems as good as any of the other free products. I used to use it religiously, but now use Microsoft's security Essentials. It is also free but there may be system requirements for it.
