"Symantec Antivirus Auto-Protect Failed to Load"

[Sir_Die_alot]

I haven't used AVG for a long time. It used to be really great, but it sucks now. It has lousy detection rates compared to other products, and the feature bloat is stupidly huge.

What you are describing is that AVG likes to take focus when it does even the most mundane of tasks, which is what ultimately turned me off. I want an antivirus utility to work silently, and only tell me something when it needs to. AVG doesn't do this.

Oh AVG, how far you have fallen:(

Ironically this happened when that post about avast was posted a few months back so I switched then. My computer is good enough to multitask but the window thing was a killer.
