Is Panda better than AVG?

Yes. A lot better. It cost money though, but for removing that one virus you have panda will work with the trial version.

Not really. Viruses have much more of a spread rate, and are normally not made by companys. Viruses can bring spyware, but that does not make spyware a virus.

P.S. I knew that "viruses" is the correct form for more than one virus. Simply a laps in memory.

ya but when I tried it to remove this virus he had on a computer once, it didn't work. Panda was the only one I could get to work properly and efficiently (with little time).

The dumbed down reason?

Well panda provides a really awesome firewall/security system that catchs everytime a program tries to dial out/in and stops it, which allows the virus program to completely remove the virus without having to even be in safe mode.
