Prevx1's community database lets it ignore known good files and jail known bad ones, while behavior analysis spots unknown baddies. Its protection is effective, but you'll still want a signature-based product to clean up malware fully.
Prevx1 pros - Identifies known good/bad programs using online database. Detects unknowns based on behavior analysis. Local analysis informs database. Effective at keeping malware out.
Prevx1 cons - Requires active Internet connection for full protection. Doesn't remove malware traces such as Registry keys and non-active files. Occasionally blocks valid programs.
While AVG's Control Center is a bit awkward, you'll have little need to use it after the initial configuration. It can automatically block password-protected ZIP attachments and other specific attachments types, to help balk e-mail-delivered malware. And if a nasty Trojan leaves your system unbootable, you'll be glad AVG prompted you to create rescue diskettes.
AVG Free Pros - Creates rescue diskettes for emergency recovery. Integrates with Outlook, Eudora, TheBat!; can manually configure other email clients. Can add virus-free notification to mail. Can delete all or specified attachments.
AVG Free Cons - Control Center configuration screen is awkward. Least successful of the three against spyware. Scheduling limited to daily full scan and daily update.
Base on the review above, i think Prevx1 is better because it removes malwares better. Not saying AVG Free is not good, but if you want to get something free then AVG Free and Avast! Is recommended. But if you want a better protection for your computer, Prevx1 is better.

prevx1 is better. I've already answer your question 30 minute ago. i suggest you download it first and test it for couple of week and see the different. remember broo...I'm a computer programmer and i really want you to free from malware. just believe me. AVG is not good enough, many computer user likes AVG because they haven't deal with wild virus such.
