Does AVG security toolbar do anything useful actually? It seems to me that all its functionality is already integrated into Linkscanner.

Linkscanner is a resource hog. It sucks your computers cpu power and internet bandwith since it scans every search results you get from google. I´d say AVG´s toolbar AND Linkscanner both are useless. | |||

AVG Security Toolbar could prevent you from accessing a phishing/malware-site. But I don't see sense in such tools, if the user is smart enough to think, before he clicks... | ||||

I would just close the tool bar. AVG will still be running. The linkscanner should be enough. I think it is just another annoying tool bar. Close the bar won't end the process, so you should still be fully protected. | |||

I think if you have the latest browser versions, the toolbar is pretty much useless, it had its place before the updates to the browsers for the malware and spoof sites. | |||

Since the search field has been integrated in most browsers, I don't see a need for the most conventional toolbars out there. The security-related ones will only add some annoying icons to search pages and display something if it thinks a site can't be trusted, but the users that will visit these sites usually ignore warnings altogether, unless you block their screen for a minute and force them to read and think about it. | |||

AVG toolbar is pretty useless. I have seen other toolbars in the past and my experience has not been satisfying one. The toolbars slow down the browser and the also takes the precious screen space. I use WOT addon on firefox to check the link reputation even before I click it. | |||
