I pay for AVG antivirus and they give me these pop up ads. Clicking 'resolve all' tells me to buy their VPN service. A lot of the info here isnt even correct. I do not live in sydney. HTTPS is encrypted, etc

STOP USING AVG.

That’s it. Just seriously let those fuckers go die. They suck.

stop using antivirus at all. just use malwarebytes

I keep getting similar ads telling me my location is being exposed and my IP visible and that I need a VPN too…

My location shows as Romania and the IP is my VPN endpoint.

Just use Windows defender

Another funny one is that hackers can access my webcam because Avast wasn’t able to access it to check. It is physically disabled. Morons.

AVG is just malware. Used the paid version of AVG and removed it after 2 months. Its that awful.

Same reason I won’t use their free version or IOBit’s free cleaner, similar pop ups telling me something’s wrong but wanting me to upgrade to the ‘paid’ version.

I use ESET Endpoint Antivirus and Windows defender (idk, it was already installed in the PC)

I used to support AVG years ago when they were paid full version of programs. Over the years they started to add 3rd party components that need to be paid to a different company. I stopped supporting them. I recommend using Windows Defender. It works good enough. Keep malware bytes to scan manually when needed. AVG basically became greedy. Expecting you to pay to upgrade their components.

What does AVG stand for?

Delete AVG and use fucking malwarebytes dude

It’s also difficult to get rid of. I had to open the package and delete each bit one by one, then go into trash and delete each bit one by one as it won’t let you uninstall in the normal way. Now running a cleaner app to make sure it’s really gone.

why the hell did you choose AVG?

Same it tells me an ip address and it’s not even mine

Windows_XP2 more like Windows_Advertisment HOOHOHOH GOT EEEEM IM SO MLG OHOHOHOHO !!!1!1!!! Y33T D3L3T3 OHOHOHOH

^(god kill me)

Yeah, thing is I am already paying and they still think my screen is free real estate

Another reason to go to a different AV provider once that one runs out.
