Updated to 2015 version yesterday (I was running avg_free_x64_all_2014_4744a7830). The 2015 version actually slowed down my PC and made it freeze, forcing me to cold reboot.
I ended up un-installing the 2015 version, and now the PC runs fine.
Now I can't reinstall the 2014 version because of stupid forced "the version you are installing is outdated, downloading newer version". I can't find the "check version=0" command for command-line install.
I also saw the notice here on AVG.COM stating we will be forced to update to 2015 soon. If 2015 is not fixed I will switch to Zone Alarm or something else, I am tired of being forced to install AVG every year and have my pc slow down more and more each year!
FIX AVG Antivirus 2015 NOW!
