Administrator Tarun Posted October 3, 2006 Administrator Share Posted October 3, 2006 Now it's known as AVG Anti-Spyware. It'll go through some testing before it's sent out in any anti-malware packages. Looks like the user interface got a slight makeover as well. I'm going to look into it further after work today. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haze Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 ... A G A I N! Please do tarun, let me know what its like. Well i dl myself.

Administrator Tarun Posted October 4, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted October 4, 2006 It even caused my computer to lag which is really weird for any software to do. O.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimate Predator Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 So ewido is off the list now, thats a shame, many people liked it, though I didn't to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenknight Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I just use the free scanner. During the trial period I tried running the realtime protection, and it slowed down the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_Age Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 1. I like the new highlighted blue tab color. 2. I hate the name of it. 3. The program is even better then that of the Anti-Virus program and I mean as in Development. Guys come on, AVG only tweaked a couple of things like the GUI and Interface. Nothin was really changed.

Administrator Tarun Posted October 7, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted October 7, 2006 It actually made my machine sluggish, whereas previous versions worked fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_Age Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 It hasn't made my computer any slower :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Tarun Posted October 7, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted October 7, 2006 It scanned some Vista ISOs and other files and made a huge drag on the system. First program to ever do that. Not even Doom 3 did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_Age Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 It scanned some Vista ISOs and other files and made a huge drag on the system. First program to ever do that. Not even Doom 3 did that. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>So what if it scanned slow. Yes, that can lead to a freeze up or the BSOD but hey they will hopefully look into those Issues.

Administrator Tarun Posted October 8, 2006 Author Administrator Share Posted October 8, 2006 It wasn't the scan, it was the overall effect on the computer. Even AFTER the application had long since been closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
