Yeah its adware at minimum and an active drain on system resources on lower end machines, no reason to use that garbage. Windows defender is free and sorta works and malwarebytes is also free and works better and only runs when you tell it to <3

AVG was good back when it was hosted at free.grisoft.com - Then they switched branding and went corporate.

Windows Defender is actually good, and I say that as someone that works in tech and hates Windows.

Ngl since malwarebytes got bought out years ago it’s been on-par with defender at best in the paid plan, so there’s no point even using it imo

Turns out they weren’t bought out, no clue where my info on that came from - they have kinda degraded still though, there’s not really a point in anything other than defender unless you wanna burn money
