User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Slows your PC to Turtle Speed
This AVG Internet Security Product seems to do its job, however it does so at the expense of your computers resources. It slowed every aspect of my 3 computers to a snails pace. PC: 1GM or 2GB Ram, 2.1Ghz Pentium II. Opening documents SLOW, accessing the internet SLOW, opening Outlook SLOW, booting up SLOW. I did every speed trick I could find out about and it was still slow; used a program to clean and delete unused files (.tmp, etc). Cleaned out all non-critical start up programs, I made sure there was plenty of free space on my hard disk. I used a registry cleaner (ccleaner [free]) to clean up my registry. I defragged the drive, still SLOW, SLOW, SLOW. I then removed AVG and WOW it is like a new PC, fast again. By the way last years Norton 360 had similar effects.

MY NEW SECURITY PLAN: Use windows firewall (included in windows), my ISP also has a firewall, use Mozilla Firefox (free & better) not IE. Use a spam program Mailwasher. This has been working, no viruses and a fast computer again. Four friends have done the same with successful results. If you feel comfortable with more than this than I would try just Anti-spyware & Antivirus and not a complete suite. I’m not an computer expert, just a much happier user now that I have my PC back.

5 Stars Good Product! Great Price!
I purchased the AVG Internet Security software as a Christmas gift for a friend. It arrived very quickly and was the perfect gift for our friend!

1 Star don,t buy this sofware it is horrible
i installed avg internet security and then 2 days later i had no internet. had to call the Fios tech support and they told me that my internet ipv4 address is just and my internet should be working so i uninstalled the AVG internet security and my internet came back and this software is horrible i recommend Adaware pro 2008 you get a lot better service plus more protection that,s why it cost more $49.99 with amazon.com plus free shipping that is a good deal

2 Stars Not what I expected.
This product requires removal of the original software. Most upgrades do not. It is an inconveient requirement.

1 Star 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. I did a lot of seach on internet, try to find out the problem and did some changes on my PC, finally found out it’s because of AVG. After uninstall AVG, they are back to normal. So I’m only using AVG Anti-Virus part now. And my PC got much faster.
