  • Should I pay out for the full whack AVG?

    Im really quite upset that again someone has used my credit card number to attempt purchases.

    I have free avg 7.5 and zone alarm.

    I feel very uneasy about things like key logging which neither of those cover. The full avg 8 program including a-v, firewall, spyware, anti logging, anti spam is available for a 30 day trial and then costs £39 a year. If it saves me losing anything then I feel I am happy to pay for it.

    Any opinions from the techis on here please? Im currently downloading the free trial.

    The other thing techis please - now Ive given the old puter to son and he has it networked through to his room, does that make me more vulnerable to attack by hackers etc. or are each computers separate identities?

      Well you wouldnt want two running babs as it would make your puter really slow.

      Ive just downloaded the trial full security pack from avg and Im a bit confused over what to do with some of the settings - like in the firewall it asks if its a stand alone puter, a small home/business network or a portable. Ive clicked small network and then there is a box to enable gaming. Ive ticked that aswell as that what son uses his puter for in his room.

      Ive just emailed them asking if Ive done it right. I dont begrudge paying the money if its worth being safe.
