*The*Field*Marshall* 674 Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 It's a rip off Kay, AVG free will do the job. I've actually not used anything on my laptop for the last couple of years, it slows your computer down quite a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kay 3,709 Posted October 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Sorry, just seen you've tried AVG. I got put off by AVG when I had to install the 2013 edition on a previous laptop.... I had nothing but issues with the machine ... but thinking back I was still running XP & no doubt the lack of windows updates would have had something to do with it as well Thanks for the reply Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flipper_Al 1,012 Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 Don't get a free one.... There's more and more spyware, malware, viruses, etc, and it will continue to grow Who do you bank with....? You can get Kaspersky foc from Barclay's Otherwise its £29.99 for one PC Others worth a look are Eset Nod 32, and Panda AV Quote Link to post Share on other sites
