Did a test see the results....

@Lindows that's really a good result from AVG 2012. +REP.
The 2012 didn't bring any new major feature but it seems that they improved their database.......

Ok here is the thing with avg every new year release they have about 90% detection and that's very good. But during about half a year they get sloppy again..... until the next new release.

not bad for AVG new version (2012)
but, i don't like RAM usage and lot process for FREE version (up to 60MB and 9 process).

agree, too much processes.

Again, it depends what components of AVG you decide to install and the last time I used AVG, RAM usage was low per process.

Is the Avg advisor compatible with Chrome??

 

[Ink]

Yes.

From my recent experience with AVG LinkScanner 2012; it installs an extension/plugin.

If I'm correct the installed AVG Extension shows the Site Ratings and the AVG Plugin is the exploit protection.

1+ i remember you saying in one of your videos about this

 

[Nathan Wootton]

Well im using AVG 2012 now for a week or too and i must say they have improved ALOT from the last time i used AGV.... Was a bad experience it couldn't remove a rookit back in 2008

 

[MDRockstar]

me too i tried avg free 2012 and i am impressed by identity protection. The detection rate is good and removal of malware too.

 

[Littlebits]

I will have to agree that AVG products have improved very much these last few years.
I can't remember back when my mother used AVG several years ago and she had over 100 malwares on her system and AVG didn't detect any of them. I can feel comfortable now recommending AVG to others.

Thanks.

 

[win7holic]

but. hopefully they cutting down ram usage, and make the total process only 2-3 process (currently up to 8 processes)

 

[jamescv7]

Also AVG managed to put rootkit protection even in the free version that it was became a suggestion by the users long time before. So AVG made their track back likely since 1-2 years.

fftopic:
Let me say I have 10 processes running, for example, each of them consume exactly 1MB of RAM... And one process consuming exactly 10MB of RAM, which one impacts the performance more, and why?

 

[win7holic]

what? 10MB ram?
are you not wrong?
this.
