AVG nightmare!!!

[Fay]

I have got message, computer not protected as "anti rootkit kernal mode driver not found". i have done a rootkit search & it says ok.

rang help line, girl from Taiwan,  stressed me so much by not knowing what i am talking about, i had to stop the call.

Grateful for a solution.

Tony i think i will have to change. you never know if AVG do things to make you buy something else. it seems this rookkit problem is common with it.

[Fay]

I need the best free computer protection, any more suggestions. AVG has got to go!!!!!!!!!! it has got intrusive & keeps wanting to sell you more of their stuff

Urgent suggestions needed please

I use MSE with no problems

avast is totally free, it costs nothing, unless you want the upgrade, which is not worth it.

Plus avast has a remote help function built in which is fantastic.
