Rating: - Not what I expected.
This product requires removal of the original software. Most upgrades do not. It is an inconveient requirement.
Rating: - Sometimes IE can't connect to web site
I use AVG IS on 2 PCs, both have the same problem, SOMETIMES a newly opened IE window can't connect to web site(even localhost) while ping and other web applications working fine.

So I'm only using AVG Anti-Virus part now. And my PC got much faster.

I tried checking AVG website and could not find the correct answer that addresses my issue. ... Read More
