The AVG Anti-virus Free Edition is an antivirus, antyspyware and antimalware protection tool for home users. This engine is dedicated to basic security needs and updates for the product will be available for lifetime making possible a very high percentage of virus detection. This final version focuses on improving the performance of the antivirus, meaning also increasing the speed of the scans and boot times. The scans and the updates are being activated automatically by a scheduling utility. The program isn’t supposed to overburden your system if it is running in the background or if it is performing a scan but it seems it will significantly affect the system boot or shut down time.
