hmmm… I have Bitdefender by now and I already had few problems with it too. So, I’m thinking of making most of this AVG promotion. By the way, what’s your favorite between AVG and Bitdefender? Don’t say I don’t like both of them…. I need your suggestion in this matter.
August 29, 2010 @ 9:41 PM
Well, frankly speaking I havent used AVG pro till now. Right now I have Bitdefender on my laptop, but perhaps I dont like AVG due to the bloated stuff. But still this is a opinion without any logic. You can try for yourself. I dont have any plan to remove bitdefender and try something else.
August 29, 2010 @ 10:14 PM
yes, i’ll try AVG also. the reason for which i am thinking of shifting to AVG is that sometimes bitdefender AV module is not loaded, sometimes virus scan module is not available etc. that’s really bad because those are the basic duties of AV. Do you also have this kinda problems with Bitdefender IS? or is it only me who is facing this problem? (as I use Comodo Firewall also, obviously with BIS firewall disabled)
September 3, 2010 @ 1:13 PM
Are you using any registry cleaners ? they could cause the problems too.
I had such problems with Bitdefender earlier this year, I was using Win utilities to run one-click maintenance and it caused the Firewall component to get uninstalled or something.
Anyway I no longer use BD or Win utils 😀
PS: No probs Avi 🙂 I also hope Rahul is able to activate the AVG license
I didnt wanna keep posting multiple comments at the same post, but then noticed Samuel’s comment and wanted to know what could have caused the issue. I guess I should read all comments thoroughly before posting replies 🙁

Hi,I got 2 serials from the promo about AVG pro the promo site has the file of the applicario which is 2 mb i guess its a online installer plz provide me the link to download the .exe file of this perticular antivirus
I downloaded the ver.90851a3009 110MB file but the serial is not working
plz reply ASAP
September 2, 2010 @ 9:30 PM
The web installer from AVG website which is 2 MB should work as they said you can register the serial at their site. The installer from v3.co.uk too had same size of installer when promo was active.
Here is the link http://www.avg.com/in-en/download-file-stb-triavd

tell us here if you are unable to activate it. I will then try on my side to try it.
September 3, 2010 @ 10:17 AM
Open up the AVG interface and click on Help -> Register now,
It should open up a new web page with a registration form, fill it up.
Or visit this page http://www.avg.com/in-en/registration and paste the license that you got from the promo and register the product.
Try one of the above methods, then you will get a new key in your email. That is the actual license for the product.
Could you post your feedback after you try this?
September 3, 2010 @ 10:40 AM
I forgot to mention that you can use the 110 mb installer to register the product.
The license number you got from the promo is actually a “Sales Number”.
For registration you need to fill up the fields marked with an asterisk *
First name, Lastname, Email id , confirm email id. Select the country (India was automatically selected based on my ip). Click on the check box to agree with the license agreement.
Click on continue. It will ask you to confirm if the info you entered is correct and click on continue again and the actual license will be displayed on the next page. It will also be sent to your email id.
I have just registered this on one of my computers 🙂
It says License expires on : 03-09-2011

Thank you ashwin for the detailed info. I was not able to answer as I have not installed AVG. Hopefully Rahul can now use the license.
