I'm sorry but stay as far away from them as you can. AVG 7 was great,
I used to recommend it all the time, but version 8 has become really
bloated and chews through resources like no-ones business. I installed
it on a dual-booted (XP/Debian) Laptop w/ 512M RAM and after upgrading
from 7 to 8 my machine in XP began to lag badly.
