AVG . The antivirus people, are really beginning to piss me off.
    #23342369 - 06/14/16 07:34 AM (7 years, 8 months ago)

They've been giving a warning message that "your free AVG antivirus is about to end".
Well, yesterday it did.
I had to spend hours yesterday, including many restarts, and downloading their 'super-special' AVG remover tool, after going through the 'add/remove programs' function, which didn't work, to try to delete their program, before I could install the new free version.

Today my comp slowed up to the point I had to close down all the windows that I had open, only to find, an AVG message, asking me if I wanted to download some new app of theirs that would help to speed up my computer.
It's like these cunts are operating some sort of protection racket.
Arseholes. /rant.

Did they pull this trick with everyone?

I have only ever used Avast home/free edition.
I've never had any problems with it in 14 years of use. I get brief, small corner pop messages asking if I want to upgrade but it never invades or bothers me.
When I need to re register yearly, I only need to do a very quick email verification. It takes 30 seconds and once you enter the key in, that's all sorted.

Quite frankly if Avast ever did something like that to me, I'd find a new AV :wink:

Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.

pretty much all antivirus does this protection racket scam.

I don't usee them. I stopped about ten years ago, using virus scanners now and then when someone asked me to look at their computer, but as I've found out, it's just not an issue, unless you're using kazaa lite or emule (even then it's not too hard to figure out what's carrying a nasty payload.)

Worst case Ontario, just reinstall windows
