I have AVG free, been using it for months along with Spybot for spyware. I heard from a friend that adding Avast! to my collection would improve my protection, but I would like to have more opinions. Would having two anti-virus programs really help any? |

Negative. Go buy NOD32 if you want a better AV. |

Do not mix and match virus scanners. It is bad. Use a combination of AVG, Spybot S&D, and Ad-Aware Free. This prescription, combined with not going to shock sites and intelligent downloading and web-browsing, will keep your computer safe, requires no piracy, and is completely free. |

Replacing AVG with NOD32 is faster but not cheaper. There's a lot to be said about programming in assembly. |

avast home version is free and it's hella good. Just dont mix and match that with anything, anti viruses can mess around with eachother. Norton has a habbit of saying any other anti-virus is a virus and try to remove it ![]() |
