AVG Pro 7 Question

I've been using it for 6 months now... I don't think I could have spent my money on a better product. Fast updates, highly customizable, fast scans, resource friendly, and good support. Very Happy

Well, I've been running AVG Pro now for about a month and I'm very happy with it. I was really getting tired of checking out all those AVs out there. AVG Pro has everything I need.

I really like that monster guy with the cigar who pops up when AVG detects a virus (EICAR TESTS). Wink

i haven't seen a monster guy with a cigar.
when does that happen?
when you run the test and it finds something?
or just on a test virus?
'cause it doesn't do it when it finds something in the email.

The virus detection prompt (monster w/ cigar) appears when AVG's resident scanner detects a virus.

click on the "eicar.com" DL link to see...

I noticed that the "monster" prompt only appers when using IE, I get nothing when using Opera or Mozilla.

that's funny,
shouldn't the monster be a constant?

Hey guys being on the topic of AVG 7.0 and all I was wondering. I read that the license for AVG 7.0 is valid for 2 years. During this time we can download product updates, virus updates and have technical support available. What about after 2 years? Will I still be able to download, at least, the virus updates??

i can't remember how much it costs to buy the license; but i tell you how i justify it to myself,i know that it just cost me $10.89 last night to get hamburgers and fries at the burger king here.
so if it costs $40.00 then it only costs me the price of three or four trips to the burger king.

and the product that i receive will help protect my P.C. from the very real dangers of having my p.c compromised by someone who wants to put malware on my p.c and then maybe steal my credit card number again.
and that was no fun even though the wells fargo and company completely indemnified me of the charges.
the thieves were using my credit card as far away as the town of Nice,France.
and i live in oregon,U.S.A.
NOW, you go think about it.
