Version: AVG Anti-Virus 8.0.227
"Difficult installation, moderate protection"
Pros: For nothing it gives some protection if you can get it to install. I was traveling and realized the laptop had no virus protection so it was adequate for me to read emails on the road.
Cons: Installation is hard, it does not seem like a long term anti virus solution. My friends that are using it seem to have conatant virus problems. Mcafee is a better long term choice as it updates automatically.
Summary: Could quick solution, but not a long term solution.
