AVG and Windows
I have the free version of AVG security. Would it be better to disable all of my Windows security? The reason being to make my computer better.

Re: AVG and Windows
turn on AVG, leave the Windows firewall on.
turn off any other security you have (security essentials, windows defender, UAC) and you should be fine.

Re: AVG and Windows
there are other firewalls that can be used, a company i know of use Firewall+ on their domain.
problem is, its really.. conspicuous. Its rare to notice Windows firewall to be fair.
