If you have AVG Internet Security, update it.

I updated my AVG today, and it prompted me to restart, which it usually doesn't do. Once i did, I noticed on startup there was ~100mb less RAM being used by the system, and my boot time went down a couple of seconds.

I guess it had some memory leaks or they optimised it. Either way it's good for us AVG users :)
 
I downloaded the new suite last week and to me it's the opposite :confused:
Once up and running it's fine but on bootup it takes so much longer for the tray icon to become initialized and allow networking.
Perhaps it's just XP and when I install W7 it will improve but right now it's crap. My licence runs out next June so will have to live with it for now.
 
I mean there was an update released today and it dropped usage.

Does yours update by itself?

Also, perhaps they just optimised it for vista. I'm also going to Windows 7 :)
 
I'm at work right now so haven't updated yet. I thought you were talking of the update from v8 to v9 which happened a few weeks ago. Perhaps this latest update is to put right the problem I have. :good:
 
I don't like the V9 personally. the icons are lifeless and you can't exit the tray icon without task manager. there is no "exit" option anymore.
