I think that is really user preference. One might do the job better for one person than it does for another. I have used both and personally I don't like all the popups from avg at all. It is a real good scanner though. I think I would go with avast if those are the only two choices.

I always used AVG but then when I installed Kaspersky it found a number of Trojans that AVG did not pick up  ???
