AVG AntiVirus Free 2016 v2016.121.7859
If you want free antivirus software that can give you peace of mind,
then AVG AntiVirus Free is your ideal solution. The program will protect
your computer against viruses and other malicious applications by doing
more than scanning your system.
Features:
- Provides real-time protection to ensure computer is always safe via AVG Resident Shield
- AVG On-Demand Scanner allows users to schedule tests
- AVG E-mail Scanner checks for any malicious content hidden in e-mail messages
- AVG Virus Vault handles infected files safely
- Unlimited updates of the free virus database
- Blocks infected links
- Checks files before downloading
The installation package includes many components that are
automatically installed by default. However, custom support allows users
to select the components they would like to install. These components
include identity, Web browsing and e-mail protection.
Since AVG AntiVirus Free is ad-supported, it offers third-party tools
and makes changes to Web browsers. However, we paid closer attention
during installation and avoided clicking 'Next' unnecessarily, which was
enough to skip the things we did not want.
The new AVG AntiVirus Free has adopted the appearance of Windows 8, featuring flat buttons on a neatly organized user interface.
The program has several enhanced features, which are useful for
protecting personal data both locally and online. The latest release
includes an innovative cloud-based detection method that gives users the
most up-to-date protection based on the latest virus definitions and
other algorithms. With Outbreak Detection feature, the program enables
users to take fast steps to nip emerging threats in the bud.
The program let us scan custom folders and files, removable drives or
a whole computer. We could also set it to scan for rootkits alone.
Indeed, the free antivirus software has customization options that
enable advanced users to configure its complete scanning behavior. Some
of the things we could configure included scan speed, exceptions,
automatic virus removal, tracking cookies, heuristics, archives, PUP and
spyware reports, file extensions and automatic PC shutdown.
In addition to verifying both outgoing and incoming e-mails, we also
used the program to filter spam. It is compatible with POP3, IMAP and
SMTP. The program also scans suspicious activities and applications to
prevent identity theft.
Conclusion
AVG AntiVirus Free is a powerful program for giving PCs an
all-rounded protection. Its default configurations allow novice users to
have comprehensive protection, and advanced users can adjust it to suit
their preferences.
