AVG Internet Security is one of the most popular antivirus packages. This program includes several modules: antivirus to combat worms, Trojans and other viruses, a proactive protection module, firewall, rootkit module, e-mail scanner and link scanner to prevent visits to malicious sites. AVG Internet Security can analyze suspicious files with the help of cloud technologies and collects data about virus attacks from all computers where this program is installed - it allows you to respond to new virus threats and protect all members of the user community.

If necessary, this antivirus system can protect you from spam and Internet fraud, prevent theft of personal data and ensure security when connecting to Wi-Fi networks. In addition, AVG Internet Security allows you to speed up downloading files and streaming video from the Internet (for example, from YouTube) and can work in several modes, flexibly adapting to the availability of free system resources. For example, in Game Mode, the software only starts scanning the system and updating the databases when you're not working on your computer - and once you start typing or moving your mouse, AVG Internet Security goes back to a kind of "sleep" mode. Installed with AVG Internet Security, the toolbar allows you to block the collection of data about your Internet activity in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Chrome browsers.

AVG Internet Security provides robust protection against viruses, spam and internet fraud while also optimizing system resources for efficient performance.
