Little-known Anti-virus Software Catches Viruses That Big Software Companies Miss.

Little-known Anti-virus Software Catches Viruses That Big Software Companies Miss. 
With computer virus infections at an all-time high, thousands of computer resellers, IT consultants, and computer users are abandoning their expensive, big-brand anti-virus software for the less expensive AVG anti-virus software developed by Grisoft and distributed by Walling Data Systems(http://www.avg-antivirus.net). Using a multi-level virus scan approach that is far more comprehensive than most anti-virus software, Grisoft's AVG product is able to shield users from viruses, Trojans and worms that most other anti-virus programs miss."When we replace a well-known anti-virus product with the AVG product on any computer or network, we almost always find threats that the competing software product was not detecting," says Luke Walling, President of Walling Data Systems and Authorized US distributor of the product. "Unfortunately, not many people know about AVG simply because the company reinvests all of its money into developing a better product instead of dumping the money into expensive marketing," he continued. "The up side is that the product is a lot less expensive to the end user because they aren't paying for the fancy box or advertising."However, the word is getting out. In the last 6 months, the number of computer resellers who are abandoning their current anti-virus software for the AVG product has increased by a very high percentage, and over 10 million licenses are in use by home users and businesses around the world."I lost trust in the other anti-virus software I was using because it was not filtering viruses properly," says Mike Henson, President of A+ Computer Repair a reseller in Chesapeake, VA. 

"With AVG, you get bullet-proof virus protection without the problems or the high cost; it's really a no-brainer," he added.Another attractive feature of the product is that, once installed, it will not drain your computer system's resources. This makes AVG suitable for use with a wider variety of computers that would otherwise not be able to handle the system load of some of the more popular anti-virus software."Once you install the Grisoft AVG product, it works the way it's supposed to and we don't have to go back and deal with problems or baby sit the product to make sure it is still working," says Jay Tipton, President, Technology Specialists a reseller based in Fort Wayne, IN. "Also, the support provided after the sale is top-notch," he continued, "I like the fact that we can reach a real, live, English-speaking person at Walling Data Systems who actually knows how the product works and will not B.S. you into thinking that it is your fault when something goes wrong."Grisoft was founded in 1991 in the Czech Republic by software developer Jan Gritzbach. Grisoft, Incorporated, the U.S. 

branch, was founded 1998 in Delaware and now has sales and support operations in New Jersey. In August of 2004, Walling Data Systems launched the first full-service web site offering instant product delivery on all Grisoft AVG products, live help, remote support, and a US-based toll free support hotline to all customers.
