AVG, anti-virus software they call it
More like anti-laptop working software
Let me explain about two days ago.
AVG mysteriously updated itself on my laptop
I didn’t really mind at first.
Well AVG is one of the best!! So they say, whoever they are
So I let it slide and ran it in the background alongside my malware program.
Everything seemed fine at first
But then over a period of 5 days
I noticed my laptop running slower and slower.
It came to a head when I tried to open a word document.
The document, would not open as the laptop was severely constipated.
So I then spent a day trying to speed my baby up to no avail……
Nothing seemed to work
The last resort was my laptop taking 60 minutes to boot up
So as a last resort I went to task manager which eventually loaded after 3 attempts
and what did I see……….
Three copies of AVG on my laptop, sucking out my memory and resources
So I uninstalled it by the way that took 45 minutes to do to.
My computer was running slower than a tortoise with a backache
If your gonna get AVG then good luck my friend
Now your probably wondering why I’m so down on AVG
Maybe your experience of this software is better than mine and I look forward to your comments below
But consider this
I had disabled AVG in my startup over 8 months ago as my computer was running slower than normal.
So how the heck did it manage to reinstall and start running without my approval
That’s some strange poo.
Secondly, the makers of AVG have spent so long making the interface of AVG look pretty
It has turned into a resource hungry, memory munching beast
Maybe like PacMan………..
Anyway it is gone now but before I go
My laptop was running that slow that I could turn it on go to the shop
Grab some groceries, pop to me mothers then come home
And it still would not have booted up.
I have uninstalled AVG and now my computer is running something like it used to.
