It is exceptionally good, especially for free! I am a technology professional and it's what I use personally on all my home computers. All anti-virus programs must do updates to keep up with new malicious code, so criticism of that isn't really valid.
I've used it for years and never had any problems, it is safe, and works great. I've never had a computer get infected while using it. I also use their free spyware killer.

It's a OK program but the virus detection engine AVG use is not that great. It's easy to use and it's been around a while, that's why many people knew about it. There's a much better free antivirus called Avira, which is known mostly in the security forums. You can get it here http://www.free-av.com/ >>>>>>>>>>This is the best antivirus i used so far and i have used Norton, McAffee, AVG and Avast at one time or another over the years. Avira will updated your data base everyday at a time of your choosing and it's easy to use too.

Yes, AVG is good and safe.I don't have any problem with it. It protected my computer from viruses and trojan adwares... I think AVG is coming up with a new version complete with firewall and anti spyware.

I suggest you download AOL Active Virus Shield, It's based on the popular Kaspersky Lab Virus Killer.
It removes viruses, spyware, trojans and as it's based on kaspersky lab it removes 100% of viruses in the wild.
There's links and also a great walkthrough with a step by step guide: http://walkthroughwizard.info/

its good and all, just kind of "bulky". constantly having to deal with its updates and whatnot... just more of hassle.
