Something about AVG Internet Security 2011

TipsMake.com - AVG Internet Security 2011, recently released on Tuesday, provides a full complement of tools you expect in a secure, all-in-one security package. An easy-to-use interface as well as providing integration with popular browsers and Outlook. However, this software has additional annoying parts for users to introduce you to other products, as well as the program's scan tool that can slow down your system.

AVG targets customers who intend to use a software that can do everything in a software, provide anti-virus, anti-spyware, detect rootkits and kill them, firewalls, email scans, and protection. identify, kill spam and many other features. A one-year version for one device will cost about $ 55, while the two-year version will cost $ 82 - and there will also be a one-time discount for customers who buy products for 10 or more machines.

This program uses the main interface for accessing all protected templates. In it, a single screen will display a black - and - white icon for each template. Each model has a green check button next to it, so you will know if they are turned on and whether it works correctly. However, most of the time you use the device, you will not see the main interface, because the protection templates do the hidden work inside the computer. You only need to access them every time you need to edit certain settings.

Although the interface of the program is very clear, but the expression of the program can be complicated for you. For example, to be able to turn off a template, right-click the corresponding icon and select " Ignore the state of this component ." Similarly, when you delve into the advanced settings of the program, you will find it complicated. For example, what is the 'certification' of incoming and outgoing mail, and how do they differ from regular email in and out to detect viruses and other attacks? This program, and their help file, does not provide any specific instructions.

Besides, those who want to configure their own security settings will find a lot of options right in the single advanced settings screen.

The security templates in AVG work very much like comparable applications. For example, the firewall feature of the program, pre-configured to allow well-known applications such as web browsers or email to access the Internet. When you use software that AVG is not sure if it is safe, the program will issue a message asking if you want to allow this application to access the Internet, and you will allow them to access it. Access only this once or allow them to access completely. You can configure a firewall that only allows applications to access the Internet on all the networks you use (home network, Wi-Fi hotspots, etc.) or just a network that you feel safe - A special feature utility.

Similarly, when the antivirus utility detects threats, the program will automatically notify you and transfer these suspicious software to an archive, where the software will be disabled. You can 'free' this software if they are really safe or delete or keep them in this archive forever.

AVG's scanning process is very slow, consuming more than 3 hours. During the scanning process, they will also slow down your system, operating system and other applications.

Email attachment checking and anti-spam functionality integrate into email applications, including Outlook and any application that supports POP3, IMAP or SMTP protocols. We tried them with Outlook and didn't see the anti-spam feature work much better than the built-in feature in Outlook, although it made a small mistake in identifying too many valid email as spam. .

The System Tools model of the software, which helps to display all the processes you are using, online connection, browser extensions and software that launches with the operating system, is also a handy feature. useful. However, this utility does not provide any help. For example, the program displays the names of files that start with the operating system, but does not explain what work they do or whether they are safe when they do not start with the operating system.

Be careful with the ads

AVG's link scanner is installed as a toolbar within Mozilla's Internet Explorer, Firefox, and reports on the security of the website you are visiting. However, this toolbar also has a Yahoo search box and a link to Yahoo Weather, which has no effect on keeping your privacy and all your needs and any links. AVG's contacts all lead to Yahoo. In fact, during the installation process, your search engine will only switch to Yahoo by default unless you do not tick a corresponding dialog box.

Price: 1 computer: $ 55 (1 year), $ 82 (2 years), 3 computers: $ 69 (1 year), $ 103 (2 years). Other packages are also available to users.

Installing unnecessary Yahoo features is enough to make you uncomfortable. However, what's even worse is that AVG is trying to sell you other services. For example, the main screen of AVG displays a sample of PC Analyzer - computer analysis. Click the icon and it will check your Registry, check your hard drive to see if the drive is fragmented, check for broken shortcuts and check if you have any extra files. It sounds very useful, but when you ask them to fix these errors, you will get a website that provides a download that will help you solve the problems just once - the next time you use them you will have to pay a yearly fee of $ 29.99.

We doubt that PC Analyzer results are a bit suspicious and wonders whether it overstates the existing problems on the system. Because the utility reported that our system had 677 Registry errors while RegistryBooster 2010 reported 25 errors, Lavasoft Registry Tuner reported 21 errors and CCleaner only reported 8 Registry errors.

Evaluate

AVG Internet Security 2011 provides all the protection features you would expect in a security suite, but the carrier's badly annoying habits are 'effort' to add extra services, and the tendency to slow down. Your system during virus scanning. It is these things that make AVG less effective than it should be.
