Moving from AVG to Bullguard? Good idea?

    Hi,

    Been using AVG on a desktop machine for a year now, and its been brilliant at keeping the virus's at bay after a nasty virus got in the machine and I had to pay a guy €100 to get it removed. Now, a year later, AVG is asking for an update and €45.

    But I got a new netbook with free BULLGUARD software with a 3 pc licence. I'm going to use this on my netbook and the desktop I speak of, but have'nt used Bullguard before so I wonder am I still going to have the same level of protection?

    Thoughts?

    thanks.:)

    Are you sure that the Bullguard is suitable for the Desktop? It probably is but I seen a few lately made especially for netbooks.

    Either way they're rated pretty similar. Here and here.

    I'd use Microsoft myself and comodo firewall----> just the firewall, it comes with an antivirus you have to untick a box.

    Hello MidlandsM,


    Yes, you can use BullGuard both on your desktop and you netbook without any issue. Download the application from this link: http://download.bullguard.com/BullGuardDownloader.exe , install it and login with your username and you will be protected.

    Also let me inform you hat our product, BullGuard Internet Security is the best at detecting and blocking malware, according with the Independent test results from AV-Test Labs (you can check for more details here: http://www.bullguard.com/news/latest-press-releases/press-release-archive/2011-01-27.aspx )

    I would kindly recommend you, every time you have an issue concerning our application, to contact us on our website: http://www.bullguard.com .
