Why did you change from AVG to AVAST? (free version I presume)

I changed about a year ago, because I got a trojan that AVG couldn't seem to handle (I don't recall the name). It caused all of my anti-malware applications to stop working and would not allow new ones to be installed. I searched for a solution and found a site with instructions saying to use Avast! I had to change the exe. file name in order to install it and then run the scan pre-boot in order to nail the sucker down. It worked and I have been using Avast! ever since.

And yes, I'm using the free version.
