Is AVG 8.0 Free ok?
I know, asked and answered, but I'll ask anyway...

Some months back the consensus seemed to be that early releases of AVG 8.0 Free weren't entirely copacetic. Lots of false positives, conflicts with various other pgms, etc.

What's the consensus as of today? Is the latest build ok or should I stick with my soon-to-be-outdated-and-unsupported AVG 7.5 Free?
