Amazon.com Product Description AVG Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware--essential protection that won't get in your way. Is Your Anti-Virus Getting in the Way of Using Your Computer? AVG's new high-speed anti-virus/anti-spyware combo scanner is smarter than your average scanner. It keeps track of what's already been scanned and found clean. Result: faster scanning that doesn't get in your way. AVG Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware is simply smarter security that doesn't slow you down. It doesn't waste your time.

AVG's Secret Weapon AVG Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware also has a secret weapon other anti-virus products don't have. It has LinkScanner. LinkScanner takes over where your anti-virus doesn't go--into the depths of web pages you haven't even visited yet. LinkScanner gives you a vital extra layer of protection you won't find in other anti-virus software. And you can use it in combination with firewalls and anti-spam products from other companies with no loss of protection or PC performance. Most web threats these days are literally here today, gone tomorrow. So the only way to protect yourself is to use software that checks the page behind every link at the only time that matters--right before you click on it. Whenever you're on the web, the moment you go to click on a link, LinkScanner analyzes the page behind that link to tell you whether there's something nasty hiding there. For added peace of mind, you also get safety ratings for your Google, Yahoo! and Bing/MSN search results. Why AVG? We've designed our software so you can surf, chat, work, and social network while we take care of security. We're so quiet and efficient, you won't even know we're there. But you can rest assured that we are. - AVG's unique LinkScanner scans web pages before you visit them.
- AVG's enhanced scanner keeps your system running smoothly--online or off.
It's important to use the right level of protection for your needs. See how AVG's layered protection products compare. All AVG products give you: - Free automatic updates and version upgrades1
- Hassle-free security that won't slow you down2

Super-easy to install March 1, 2010 DWD (Indianapolis, IN) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While I am comfortable around computers I am a person that always seems to have a glitch when installing hardware and software. Re-booting my DSL system took 2 LOOOONG phone calls to India. Synching my wireless to the new lap top? Two weeks of on again/off again effort.
So, when I installed this on my new lap top I seriously considered just renewing the pre-loaded anti-virus program and calling it a day. But, I already had this AVG anti-virus program and ultimately I decided to be cheap and install what I already owned thanks to Amazon Vine.
So, how did it install?
Beautifully.
I was done in 20 minutes. I didnlt believe it and neither did my wife.
That was about a month ago and the AVAG program has been dutifully monitoring and ocassionally stopping me from clicking on virus-laden websites.
AVG Works Well! February 21, 2010 Mr. (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I used to have a lot of problems with viruses and spyware online. I had tried other anti-virus programs in the past, but after using AVG for 3 months, I can honestly say that it's the program for me.
It's very simple to load. Just pop in the disc you receive and follow the simple instructions. It practically does most of the work for you. I have mine set up to check my computer for problems once a day, but you can make it check more often if you need to.
AVG continually downloads new updates to keep it on par with any new viruses or spyware out there, so you know you're getting top of the line protection. It can even help you download safe programs to perform additional tasks if you feel there are already viruses or spyware on your computer doing harm. It doesn't really interfere with you online while its working. You may notice a slight decrease in load time if your surfing a lot of websites while it's performing a check on your computer, but that's to be expected, and it's really not much of an inconvenience.
I highly recommend this AVG program and plan to resubscribe to it once my 2 year subscription is up.
Highly Recommended.
Antivirus review February 18, 2010 Steven E. Stark (Washington, D.C., USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was using the free version for some time but decided to go with the full version. It has been good so far and does not seem to be slowing down my computer so am pleased with that. Like the fact when you google sites it check marks next to sites it has determined are safe.
Anti-Virus programs February 2, 2010 Nicholas J. Petty (hutchinson,ks. usa) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
One of the best Anti-Virus programs on the market. I would recommend it to anyone wishing to know that their computer is protected. Extremely easy to use, and does an excellent job in protecting your computer from viruses and spyware. I would purchase it again if I didn't already have it.
Hassle Free software. February 1, 2010 Mary A. Gingrich (ephrata,Pa) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Over the years i have had many different anti-virus programs and without any question AVG is the best that i have had.. Uses very little resources, stays in the background and does not "Nag". Whereas Norton, McAfee, Trendnet and panda among others will nag you to tears. I had Bitdefender 2010 installed before i installed AVG and what a difference, AVG actually catches Trojans etc, whereas Bitdefender lets em dance around all day.I think the retail version is worth buying because of course you get the full version so you can schedule different tasks etc....... Hope this helps in your decision making.
