Can AVG detect old viruses, trojans, malware, adwares, bugs in registry, hackers, spy loops etc. Does it allow to install on server NT/2000 and client mode??

AVG works best in tandem with programs like Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware, and one other free antivirus of your choice (like say Mcafee Stinger).
Trusting your system to only one antivirus or trojan/spyware detector is just suicidal. No ONE program will detect everything.
PS - Norton is the best....at slowing your system down, hogging system resources...screwing up if you try to uninstall it...taking forever to do full system scans...yup...Norton is the best at SUCKING LARGE.

I'm 99% sure it would detect old viruses you mentioned if it can detect the new ones.
It does work on those servers according to the linked web site. Read response #2

If they have had a "history" with each of those types, AVG should be able to pick them up and stop them, and yes it will work on NT/2000

i recommend using adaware...
Ad-Aware Personal provides advanced protection from known data-mining, aggressive advertising, Trojans, dialers, malware, browser hijackers, and tracking components. This software is downloadable free of charge. Thats what I use.
free download...
