You just described my computer’s performance as of late and now I know why. What anti-virus program do you recommend now?

Being that I am primarily a Mac user, I should issue the obligatory "Get a Mac!" comment—but I shall refrain. So ignore it, I didn't say it. ;^)>

However, I really suggest Avast now to my Windows using clients. You can also, for now, stay with AVG 7. I am going to try Avira on a couple of my clients to see if it might be better. Most of my clients are businesses so they use the upgraded paid versions.

Thanks. I will look into it. Can I rollback to AVG 7?

The info on email scanning being dropped after 30 days is disturbing.

I have seen three systems this month with AntispywareXP-2008 and one with Virtualmonde.

I can't possibly charge enough per hour to make cleaning these viruses off a system worth it for me. Takes several hours, and at some point you just cap the fees.

Please ping back with info on how you have found Avast and Avira to work. I will start carrying both.

Bummer, I really, really liked AVG ...
