Grisoft changing name to AVG Technologies
In an effort to better brand themselves Grisoft will be changing their name to better reflect their current product line. Their name will be changed to AVG Technologies, which is a name that more people will recognize thanks to their current AVG software line. They are the makers of the great and free “AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition” a reliable and trusted anti-virus software program.
In a lead up to the name change, Grisoft has spent the previous several months purchasing the AVG domains in various markets around the world and hope to have a smooth transition. The name change is currently being reflected on the website, although the domain name is currently still grisoft.com, no mention on when the domain names will switch over.
