    better than the 2010. Very expensive, no family pack.
    They also expect you to pay for the system tune up they include with the product, very deceiving!
    Slowed my system down.

    I would not pay for this. I will stick with Norton 2011.

    I had the 'much touted' Norton Internet Security suite that was supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread. I used it just long enough to suffer most of the problems that are mentioned here (as pertaining to AVG 9.0) and switched to AVG. I have suffered nothing like what has been said in these reviews and I think 9.0 is great.

    If the false positives are not bad enough, I also found that AVG slows down my computer by about 40%. On bootup it now takes my laptop an extra 90 seconds because of the AVG firewall. This firewall also slows down both my IE and Firefox browsers. Once I disabled the AVG and went back to using the Windows firewall I noticed a tremendous improvement in the speed and performance of both browsers. I can safely say that once my subscription runs out. I wil be dumping this and putting in either Kaspersky AV 2010 or Norton 2010.

    Im amazed it doesnt find itself as a false positive it does everything else.
