AVG Antivirus?

I recently replaced Norton with AVG on my computer, and I like AVG a lot better. Now I'm wondering if I even need to keep my other protection programs. I have Ad-Aware 2007, Spybot Search and Destroy, Wise Registry Cleaner, and Wise Disk Cleaner. Do I need to keep any of these, or can AVG do everything they do?

First of all, EXCELLENT CHOICE! Norton is the root of all evil in my opinion. AVG is fantastic! I have the free version. If you have Windows XP or Vista then you should have Windows Defender (or be able to download it from microsoft). You don't need all those extra programs to keep your computer running quickly. Actually having them all running at startup will most likely slow your computer down. Also I would advise against ANY registry cleaner or disk cleaner. I haven't used "Wise" but I've heard nothing but horror stories from those types of software.

Yeah, AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition is A LOT better than Norton, because Norton is such a resource hog... But even then I would use these programs:



SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition



Spyware Doctor (Starter Edition)



And for antivirus, I would use: avast! Antivirus



And for disk cleaners: CCleaner AND/OR Glary Utilities.
