Those of you considering Windows 7 can use AVG Internet Security, our recommended security suite, with the new operating system. For those of you upgrading from Vista, you will probably need to reinstall the application and register your license key again. Your remaining subscription time will remain in force.
AVG recently released version 9.0, which is available to current subscribers as a free upgrade. PC World magazine recently featured a laboratory comparison of the top security suites, and AVG came in 4th place, with a score of 97 out of 100. With it’s easy user interface, and low performance impact on the operating system, it is still our favorite.
We are Authorized Resellers for AVG. If you are looking to purchase a license or two, please contact us by email, and we will send you a CD.
