AVG Antivirus Free 2011

Yes, so it seems. I'll try and see if I can find the thread where it was mentioned. I think it was one when AVG 2011 products line came out.

But, the oddity is not Identity Protection detecting more malware samples than the AV component; the oddity is Identity Protection to detect known malware. That should be their AV component's task, not the behavior blocker. Their behavior blocker should be protecting systems against unknown malware, by monitoring processes behavior. Which in turn, comes in the line of what user Matthijs5nl says:

It should complement an antivirus by protecting the user system against unknown malware, not known. There's little point in doing that, otherwise why would AVG have an AV?

By the way Matthijs5nl, for this

You/anyone can try this avenue and give your suggestion for a stand alone version. Who knows, right? Unfortunately, they're against people making suggestions/ideas in their free forum. They do have a suggestions/ideas forum section, though. lol

Changelog not found

Here's some information about the new update, which AVG is calling their "Summer Update" (really!):

http://www.softwarecrew.com/2011/04/avg-launches-livekive-online-backup-and-family-safety-tools-alongside-summer-update/

Their press release which we received today is fairly vague, I'm afraid.

 

Here's the detailed changelog:

 

Is there still no possibility to uninstall PC Analyzer, LiveKive and Family Safety?

 

Avg pc analyzer are there for making money,

 

Well, how about the other two? (Not that I would ever install this, waaaay too big thing for me. Just in case someone insisted on using it.)

 

As far as I know you have to pay for Family Safety as well LiveKive? I don't know ...

However - I think you should get all components if you buy AVG IS

 

-http://www.avg.com/us-en/home-small-office-security

 

The online storage (beta) is free (and broken when I last tried.)

However, I do not want to pay for anything. The original question was whether those components can be omitted during install or at least uninstalled later:

 

I guess they still haven't bothered to fix the retarded GUI flashing on WinXP. Makes you wonder what the hell are they doing there...

 

Has AVG Free 2011 improved in terms of detection and resource usage? Is anybody using it or have tested it recently?

 

new version out though i could not find a changelog yet:

AVG Anti-Virus 10.0 Build 1325a3589

 

Read the feedback update posts on their blog, forum or facebook page.

 

Here is the Changelog

Fixes & Improvements

Maybe "New Compnent - version 9" is "Plan 9 from Outer Space"

 

I still couldn't figure out what the heck that "New Component - version 9" means

 

The changelog doesn't mention anything about this new component.

 

I was never a fan of the old AVG but I've been using the latest free version for over a month (despite having a KIS licence) and have to say I am really impressed with it.

 

IT IS really heavy on my computer
