Tech-
On my win98se machine that I was using till a week ago,
I had Avast and AVG installed and running together with no errors and virus free
Also had a folder with F-Prot for dos and 3 floppies with F-Prot . I used AVG to make a set of rescue disks and because I was running 98, avast didn't offer boot-up scan which AVG does.
I have an XP pro now and am still learning it
Using thunderbird and firefox for mail and surfing- both work well with avast
I have yet to try AVG since avast has boot-up scan which is the main reason I put AVG on my 98 in the first place. I changed to avast about a year ago because AVG let a worm in my home network that it couldn't deal with..The worm kept infecting file after file and AVG couldn't keep up. Of course I have learned a great deal since I started using this forum and have remained virus free since changing to Avast!. Not that I haven't got a virus in the mail but avast has caught every one that tried to get in!
