Publisher's description of AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition


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 8.0.1 adds integrated spyware protection and a new
LinkScanner feature that gives users safety rankings for their Google,
Yahoo, and MSN searches.




This antivirus program offers rock-solid protection. AVG Free
provides the bare necessities, including a real-time shield to prevent
infections, anti-virus and anti-malware wrapped up in one engine, and a
link scanner for Web surfing with care.




By default, the application is set to search for new virus
definitions daily, but you always can use the scheduling tool to change
this. Should a virus create serious system problems, AVG creates a
rescue disk to scan your computer in MS-DOS mode. The program doesn't
tax your system when scanning or when running in the background and
always proved effective in our tests. The new interface is much easier
to navigate than in previous version, with tabbed navigation on the
left assisting users in drilling down to the tools they need.




Though the free version of this program will suffice for average
folks, those who demand more control should certainly consider AVG
Anti-Virus Professional.
