RAW IT
“The new AVG 7.5 has performed fantastically against all manner of malicious attempts to fry my OS. I would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking of connecting their computer to the internet. It‘s easy to use and a breeze to order. And with the Anti-spyware and Anti-virus rolled into one it‘s quicker running scans and updates.”
Russell Luck, Owner


„I particularly like the email scanner. Automatically all incoming and outgoing emails and their attachments are scanned, with a small window showing precisely what is happening. For example, with download I get a threefold unobtrusive real time report in a small window thus: download percentage progress, scanning process, and transfer to my email program process. For unobtrusiveness yet informativeness, it is superb. I think your program is brilliant, easy to understand, and it automatically updates at 9 a.m. daily. Your pricing is extremely reasonable, and I have no intention of going elsewhere, and I will be renewing at the beginning of January 2007.”
Allan Lane, Perth, Western Australia


“I am a very satisfied AVG Professional user. AVG Pro saves me about 5 or 6 times a day, by eliminating viruses, Trojans, worms and down-loaders.

Allan Barker, Australia

Bill Dixon, Tasmania Australia


“With AVG, I have finally reached the pinnacle of my search for the „program for the total protection and ease of use“ for protecting my computer and keeping out all the unwanted nasties on the internet.
