If you have read my review of AVG 9, you will see that I think AVG is the best of its type.
Amazon cd disc (4 users/2 years) is under half the price of buying download from AVG direct and you get the disc.
Problems? I inserted disc and downloaded setup file to desk-top. But after entering Sales Number security code the set up stopped due to a conflict with AVG 9 already installed.
Instructions on line did not say this would happen!
Then when I tried to remove AVG 9, it would not complete its removal due to corruption.
Cure? I downloaded from AVG support page the AVG removal tool 3915, which removed all traces of AVG, rebooted and then installed AVG 2011 again - and it installed perfectly.
Downloaded updates and then registered. No problem here - website showed permanent Registration Number on completion of form and confirmation email was received in seconds. Copy and pasted in to registration section over-riding Sales Number and now registered for 2 years. Job done.
Moral of the tale: Remove old AVG first before trying to install.
Simpler set up than AVG 9. Same menus style etc and some new features, otherwise I cannot yet see any differences. If it ain't broke dont fix it..........
Have not tried to load on to second computer yet but optimistic!
Addendum:
1) I have now installed on to two other computers without problems. Removed AVG 9.0 first and then actually downloaded AVG 2011 Download Manager from AVG website (rather than use the disc) which downloads the latest edition.
You can use the disc but you then have to download mountains of updates. The Registration Number received after installing the first copy worked fine on subsequent installations whether I used the disc or the website download.
2) The expiry date is linked to the date you install on the first computer, not the date you install on each computer.
3) Problem with SPAM on all three computers: Spam emails are marked as such but no longer automatically go into the junk folder (SPAM) on receipt, but remain in the INBOX.

Easy set up. Already an existing AVG user, this was a simple renewal, as cheaper from Amazon than direct from AVG. Input sales licence into renewal box (which gave 30 day licence) and directed me to AVG website, where a full 2 year licence was generated. Copy and paste this into licence box, and hey presto, next 2 years sorted.

Having used AVG anti-virus for several years, I bought the full Internet Security 2011 package for 4 computers. The product is good: does what it says on the box, but I have one major complaint.
You get the licence number in the box to type in when installing the software, but it turns out that this is only valid for 30 days. You have to go online within 30 days and register the product to get a 'full' licence number, which then has to be inserted to keep the software fully active. If you don't, the software will become inactive. This is a lot of hassle when you have to do it on all 4 computers. In my opinion, this is totally unnecessary, and maybe bordering on the illegal?? If I have bought and paid in full for the software it is entirely unethical to send it out with a licence number only valid for 30 days. Registering the product should be voluntary, not compulsory. AVG should make this point clear when selling the product. If I had known this beforehand, I might not have bought the software. In any case, AVG got all my details, e-mail address and so on when I bought it; what more do they want?
Sorry, AVG, but I don't like the way you do business. You may have caught me this time, but next time round I won't be buying AVG.
