AVG Free 8.0.100

Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware

The foundation of your protection. Without antivirus and antispyware protection, your computer and data are at extreme risk.

AVG Free contains basic antivirus protection.

Safe Downloads & Instant Messaging

The essential protection for Internet use. File downloads, chatting with your friends and family - today these are everyday things. Protecting yourself in these areas is now another important part of your security and privacy protection.

AVG Free does not contain the new Safe Downloads & Instant Messaging protection (Web Shield technology) so it does not screen your downloads and communication for viruses and spyware.

Safe Search & Surf

The essential protection for Internet use. New web threats (called exploits or drive-by downloads) can infect your computer just by visiting a web page! Our new technology ensures the safety of search results, web pages, favorites & bookmarks before you open them.

AVG Free only includes the Safe Search protection which provides you with advice on search results. It does not protect against infected pages. Only AVG paid versions contain the Safe Surf technology.

I have a legal version of AVG 7.5 pro and AVG offered me a FREE upgrade to v8 pro. I installed version 8 pro, but after that I could not enter any forum, as my login was not working anymore. Now I am back to v7.5 Pro

I have come across posts in another forum from people who have had problems with AVG 8 FREE installation.

[gaganjain]

oh crap, avg turning into nagware now? i am still on 7.5 but i think may 31 they will force an update... might need to think about moving to another free solution then...

i installed it over 7.5 free.. working fine as of now.. not got any nags forthe safe search. But its UI has become kinda bloated..its become more resource hungry.
