Do you mean anti-virus or spyware. AVG is a anti-virus utility as I am sure the Symantec (Nortons) utility that you also have. Spyware is completely a different thing. You can only run one AV utility. As for spyware programs, you can have as many on your machine as you want. Some of the favorites are SpywareBlaster, AdawareSE Personal, Spybot Search and Destroy (all free)
Related question. AVG anti spyware is Ewido renamed. I ran Ewido for ages but during a reinstall it got left out because I forgot it. Now I have installed the AVG anti spyware.
My question is, will this update automatically as Ewido did for 30 days only? It will not be a problem but I wondered if after the renaming whether AVG has made it a permanent auto updating program.
owbist, AVG anti-spyware works the same as Ewido did. 30 days premium support with updates, then goes to the free version with no automatic updates. I always go to Manual updates and download the newest signatures from the last 2-3 days.
