FUCK YOU AVG!

AVG disguises fake traffic as IE6 | The Register

I have enough problems interpreting stats as it is. This is fucking ridiculous!

Wow.. there goes the internet

 

[-Matt-]

There goes life as we know it

 

[MrStitch]

Wow... link bait with worthwhile information. Thats the holy grail for traffic right there. hahahah

I think the REAL story here is that analytics software needs to keep up to date with scanner software, just like it's suppose to with SE bots... big deal.

This is retarded. Even if we block AVGs IP, it will mean our sites won't get a 'tick' in the SERPs, which will definitely have an impact on the searcher clicking the site above/below with a tick rather than yours without a tick.

It would be fun to see some hacker group do the same to them, overload their servers with crap traffic.

AVG is really such a pain ! slows down the system, eats up memory and every now and then you have the fucking updates and now they come up with all this shit.

OK, so what makes a good alternative? Avast? Avira?

 

[rockhard]

avast! works great.

Ok question, does avg "click" on adwords ads as it's scanning?</div> <- also what's with this fuckin div tag that appears every time I try to post.

AVG is a bad antivirus, dont use it, even a free version, if you dont like to spend money download a cracked NOD32

^^^ Why everybody says that?
