AVG 8 removes a couple of hundred of Spyware Guard's protective entries. Specifically, the hklm active x compatible series.

I reported it on their web site also. They know about it. The new algorithms they use are incompatible with the immunize features of Spyware Blaster (not Guard), Spybot S&D, and anything else that uses protective hklm entries with signatures similar to the real threat.

Still, AVG is a good program. I will keep it.
