AVG Anti-Virus has gone through many changes over the years but is still one of the handiest free antivirus programs available for personal users.
Despite being a free security tool, AVG Anti-Virus is as good as any paid anti-virus app. It features a bunch of dedicated modules to protect you from antivirus, spyware and rootkits and spam, and also includes the so called LinkScanner
– an extra layer of protection that checks search results and web links
to make sure they’re safe. In recent years, the developers have added more intrusive features
that try to intefere with browser settings such as your preferred
search engine but overall, it still remains a good anti-virus option.
