AVG Antivirus Free Edition Review

I start out but downloading the AVG antivirus Free Edition after a friend of mine suggested it for my computer.  I was not very computer savvy at the time and was worried if the program would be too complicated for me to follow.  To my surprise I found it very easy to use and was surprised to find so many threats on my computer that was not even aware of. 

Removing the threats were easy also.  One thing I really liked about this program was that even a computer illiterate person such as myself could scan and remove threats and viruses from my computer with ease. 

Another feature that is optional but I liked was that you could set your avg to automatically scan at certain times  - such as the same times every day or just once a week.  I always would set mine for around 3am so I never interferred with anything I was working with online.  That was one drawback I did find that while it was running my computer appeared to run slower.  Other than that it is great.

I also love the fact that it automatically updates it's virus definitions to keep up with new threats. I have had this program for several years now and I have always been pleased with it.
