no, i don't use real time scanners

no, why would it?
Free software is insecure because of incompetence, proprietary software is insecure because of malice.
Anti virus is a thing of the past grandpa.

The Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display doesn't have this problem.

Yeah, it raises one question. How many fools have installed that piece of shit, over the years, to make it worth 1.3 billion dollars.

>>55455377
True. Apple users problems are in the butt. AIDS and stuff

Just end the cancerous AVG brand already.

Top kek.

Not really. AVG has been absolute garbage since v7 - sad to say, because they used to offer a half-decent free antivirus for normies, but now, the built-in Windows Defender is the way to go for that.

I don't know why Avast would even want what's left of that shit.

Explain to me why anybody would want an antivirus program in this day and age.

>>55460782
To get rid of viruses

>>55460789
How the fuck does anybody get viruses anymore.
>>
Most AV is junk, but keeps home users safe from themselves.

>>55455431
My father had that shit installed and i wonder the same. Its a brand name i guess.
