I know- thats why I said what I did... the guy used avg, now he uses avast.
On the other hand, I have also been using it for 3-4 years and about a month or so ago I had 4 computers with avast (all upto date) get infected. |

no only one can be active or you get all type of errors fails report on virus be like a over kill having two running at the same time.

what you could do though is have both installed, just one running.
Then every so often you shut one down and run the second one - lol one of my squad mates does that all the time. |

I'd have to say AVG and avast! antivirus.
To be honest I'd probably choose avast! antivirus.
