Hi,

I am currently using AVG7 Pro which I bought a while back however I
also have a license for McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 7.1.0 from where I
work (all emplyoes can use it on home systems). So which do I use?

I know you can't answer 100% which is better but which would YOU
choose? I just want some peoples opinions on it.

Also would it be possible to run them both on the system at the same
time? Would it cause any problems?

Sorry for the [very] stupid questions but I don't want to spend hours
and hours reading all about it, I just want opinions from others.

Please remember this is McAfee VirusScan Enterprise, not the standard
Home version and AVG7 Professional, not the free version.

TIA Smile

Thanks Smile

As I have paid for AVG I will just leave that on here for now. I have
McAfee here if I ever want to install it I guess.

Why should it scare you? Just put the windows update URL in the trusted
zone and change the security for all other zones to high.
