  Duration of ownership: 1 Months

  Strengths: Not sure it has any.

  Weaknesses: It uses up so much resources that it slows down my computer.

  Overall Evaluation: I tried the one month free trial of the full version of AVG 8. The spam filter is a disaster. The firewall didn't work, gave error mesages. E-mailed AVG for tech support, but it took them so long to respond, that my trial was over before I could implement any of the suggested fixes. They did not offer to extend the trial. I'm going to try the PCTOOLS suite that received such rave reviews in PC World recently.

  Strengths: Good virus protection features, light on system, quick updates, system is well protected. AVG performs better than most paid Antivirus softwares even as compared to giants like Norton/Symantec.

  Weaknesses: None for the free version, but would prefer to have internet security & spyware protection too on the free one, rather than running 3 different (free) softwares on the system.

  Overall Evaluation: AVG being free and easy to use provides good security to the system when online. It detects virus's on the fly and ensures the same with the least amount of processing power being stolen from the processor to achieve the functionality. Good Job guys.
