Review:
When we talk about security, AVG AntiVirus provides all essentials. It provides unshakeable protection against threats by combining Antivirus, Antispyware and LinkScanner. LinkScanner provides you critical layer of protection because it scans web pages in depth and inform you before the damage is done. Other AntiVirus programs don’t have this feature yet.
GUI is almost same from the last version and very easy to use. Installation process is shortened about 50% than the last version which I noticed. Scanning of system files can be done with 3 different type of scan speed Slow, Automatic and Fast scan. Fast scan will definitely be less comprehensive and will finish in less time as compared to slow scan where scanning is much extensive at the cost of time as it could take long time depending on your system files.
AVG AntiVirus is not the best security option available in the market because it’s false positive rate is much higher as compared to its competitive AntiVirus programs. In my review, still it is a good AntiVirus program but AVG should seriously work on its false positives issue.
AVG Antivirus is a powerful antivirus, that bases its recognized effectiveness in the diverse daily updatings that carries out. AVG Antivirus provides a perfect protection for personal computers. The combinacion of various virus detection methods they assure that your computer will receive the maximum possible protection to various levels.
