To sound a little cynical here, I'm not that much of a believer in anything
free. After all, if its free, how can one shout at something if anything
goes wrong (in this case, AVG not stopping something malicious)? Just my
thoughts.

Cheers,

I too was using AVG until just over a week ago and thought it was doing a 
pretty good job. Then I heard from several sources about people who had 
switched to other programmes only to discover they had viruses that had not 
been detected. I decided to try Avast and it found two instances of the 
Win32 Trojan that Avg had missed. I now feel it's a good idea to 
occasionally try something new just in case. You can always go back, if you 
are not happy.

Best.

Robert.
