AVG Antivirus Review

AVG is a well-known antivirus program in the world. It is a great free program as well as a comprehensive collection of security tools that competes with the top suites from Bitdefender and McAfee. It’s easy to setup and use, and the user interface is functional rather than flashy.

It’s important to note that even though the suite includes a number of features that guard against malware and other cyber threats, a lot of them are only available if you choose to upgrade to the premium version. The support center of AVG is accessible directly through the software client and includes a forum, how-to sections along with community advice and an online ticket submission form. There’s also an on-line dedicated to premium customers but it’s only accessible during working hours.

The malware scanner makes use of machine learning and heuristics to identify threats that could slip past traditional signature-based detection methods. It is able to detect rootkits trojans, trojans and worms as well as other complex malware that might be missed by other scanners. It comes with an auto-scan feature that runs automatically for a quick scan that does not scan files AVG recognizes as safe and a more thorough scan designed to take longer, but provide more thorough protection.

AVG’s antiphishing software is very effective. It also comes with firewalls that can be configured to block certain ports or applications. AVG also has an optimization tool for devices that can eliminate unneeded apps and speed up the PC and a photo vault that keeps passwords. Its anti-theft features are more advanced than many of its competitors that allow users to track remotely the stolen or lost device via GPS. You can also remotely wipe or lock data and set up a siren in the event that you suspect that someone is stealing the device.
