    okay now i have avg pro and avast pro

    but u are only supposed to have 1 because if not they will collide which each other

    so can some experts(or just regular people)

    tell me which 1 is better

    AVG is faster and gets them more

    while Avast is slower but it goes with no file unscanned

    PLEASE HELP ME

    you can have both of them running. I have Avast and Nod32 running myself.

    just make sure that each AV does not check each other's folder. then they will be fine.

    Avast and AVG as well as Avast and Nod32 work well together. tho, Norton and Avast will not.

    I would pick Avast if I had to choose only one...

    I meant their on-access cannot run at the same time. Norton and Avast will fight with each other.

    Yeah

    Also, I prefer avast as well, but I know someone who loves avg, so have the best of both worlds and do em both up.

    I would say neither. I had AVG and it let a bunch of stuff through that ultimately trashed my computer and caused me to have to wipe the harddrive; Avast would detect things but not actually remove them.

    I use McAfee myself and have not had a single problem since I switched to it.

    with avast, did you at least try to quarantine it? that's the next step if you cannt delete it. or do a boot scan...
