I've been using AVG because it seemed to get good reviews. However, my internet is working slowly again. I remember one poster here recommended using CCleaner. That did indeed speed things up. But I uninstalled it from my computer a while ago because I read that you shouldn't have two anti-virus programs.

having two Antivirus programs can bog down the system when it does it's daily checks. I feel CCleaner is all you need with some added spyware, malware etc software. I think two antivirus programs is overkill.

CCleaner isn't an antivirus program, it's a hard drive cleaner that deletes all the garbage excess that accumulates on your system.

forget AVG & download Avast, it's the best Antivirus program i've ever used out of the ones i've already tried (McAfee, Norton & AVG)... completely install & forget kind of program, it'll scan every file that downloads onto your system automatically & warn you if any file is suspicious or tries to go someplace it's not supposed to go & give u options to fix the problem... it'll also update automatically every day so you never have to run a software or virus definitions update manually... awesome program & completely free.
