Avast or AVG

Hi

The clue is in the title, I currently have the free version of both avast and avg, installed on my laptop. I'm led to believe running both will cause neither to work properly. Is this true, and if so which is best to run alone?

Thanks in anticipation

David

Another one for Avast - used to use AVG - no comparison!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

You may be interested to know I have removed AVG and am running avast.
I expected someone to tell me I needed to pay for proper protection,but that's
not really the locost ethos!
