AVG Free anti-virus

AVG Free Edition is the well-known antivirus protection tool. AVG Free is available free of charge

to home users for the life of the product.

Rapid virus database updates are available for the lifetime of the product, thereby providing the

high level of detection capability that millions of users around the world trust to protect their

computers. AVG Free is easy to use and will not slow your system down (low system resource

requirements. Highlights include automatic update functionality, the AVG Resident Shield, which

provides real-time protection as files are opened and programs are run, free Virus Database

Updates for the lifetime of the product, and AVG Virus Vault for safe handling of infected files.

Version 8.5 now includes LinkScanner Active Surf-Shield to check every Web page for threats at the

only time that matters.

Jo Lynch said,AVG has become popular virus cleaner over the

past few years, and virus writers will often try to disable or evade widely used programs. That's

why it's a good idea to run secondary checks either online or by using an alternative program from

time to time.

Fortunately there are at least three good free clean virus programs: AVG, Avast!, and Avira

AntiVir. (Comodo is another option, but I have not tried it.) Nowadays, some antivirus programs

insist on being the only one installed. If so, turn it off and run Kaspersky's free standalone

Virus Removal Tool as a double-check. This is more

comprehensive than Microsoft's Malicious Software Removal Tool.

I've used Norton for years. My license was coming up so I decided to see what else was out there. Tried the free version of AVG and to my surprise, it found a couple viruses that Norton did not. That sold me and I recommend this to everyone now.
