AVG Internet security has made a serious comeback with its latest security product. For a few years it has lagged behind many other programs and has failed a few security tests. But since 2006, AVG has added anti-spyware, link scanning, safe search and identity theft protection. And these features have propelled it to the top five lists of Internet security software programs.
It has tested well with Virus Bulletin since then, and has continued to earn the VB100 award and other awards and certifications.
AVG Internet Security 2012 is a complete security product and goes way beyond basic security. It includes anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall and antispam protection and protects your PC from all kinds of malware (malicious software) threats, hackers, key loggers, phishing attacks and social media threats.
AVG has performed well in recent independent tests. Since 2010 it has earned an average 5 out of 6 in protection, 4 out of 6 in repair and 4.5 out of 6 in usability on the AV-Test undertaken on Windows XP, Vista and 7. These aren't the best scores around, but they are good and show that it is capable of protecting your PC from all kinds of threats.
AVG has passed 9 out of 10 VB100 anti-virus tests in the last two years and it scored 100% in the most recent AV-Test evaluation running Windows 7.
These test results give a good indication of how the software performs against a variety of malicious software threats through the years. And they give a clear picture of how your software is likely to perform when you install it.
