AVG New Version

TFT · 04-25-2008, 03:48 PM

As a paid user of v7 I've just downloaded v8 suite, quite a lot faster engine than the previous version and more components but what annoys me is if I disable a component it throws a wobbly. I tried to let it know that I'm the boss but I can't find a way of AVG accepting my decision

guys how much memory does the new version consume?

It's you! Hey man!

You should get 8, So far, it's a lot better than 7.5!

I just got the free 8.0 for a friend. It's actually quite nice. New, less confusing interface.

8.0 has "everything" included like anti-spyware and firewall as for 7.5... it doesn't they are seperate or you have to buy the one with the firewall.

7.5 is just as good as 8 but it lacks that extra stuff so i said say with 7.5

Dropkickmurphys · 04-27-2008, 01:09 AM

so atm 8.0 is just 7.5 with spyware, firewall etc... ?
