AVG vs. McAfee
McAfee was free now its expired and I have to pay $$$ to renew. I got AVG free and installed. I want to delete McAfee forever but I question which offers better security protection. AVG or McAfee.
Free or Pay ???

if you still want to use mcafee they have a free 1 year subscription offer going on here http://www.natwest.com/microsites/pe...eferrer=online

between who is better I'm not really sure avg will use less resources on your pc mcafee will use more,

both products have good detection,
