Not long ago I wrote a blog on my disastrous update to AVG 9.0 from 8.5 (paid version). Since then I have come to a conclusion about the software in question. Even though I provided a number of different logs and information to the AVG support group, they said they couldn't help me with my problem unless I reinstalled AVG and sent them the minidump log from another BSOD. That's all well and good for them, but I can't afford to keep blue screening my work computer so that they can solve their software problems.
I decided that as good as AVG 9 looked (and thank goodness it is less of a resource hog than 8.5), I could do without it and immediately replaced it with 2 other pieces of software.
When Grisoft gets AVG 9 in better shape I will revisit it as a antivirus/firewall alternative.
