AVG Internet Security 2015 offers the same virus protection as AVG Antivirus plus additional security features. AVG offers a free and effective antivirus software for several years. AVG Internet Security 2015 is worth investigating and still performs well, overall.
The AVG interface offers a nice look modern graphics. Most screens are easy enough to navigate and find what you need—and they’ve finally added a simple “back” button that was greatly needed in last year’s version.
The advanced settings offers a lot of choices, so it’s ideal for advanced users. Anyway, this version features technical support for any kind of matter. There are also self-help forums and FAQ pages for most questions.
All of the standard features apply: web monitoring, PC scheduling, activity reports, social network monitoring, etc. All of these seem fairly effective and adequate. AVG also offers parental controls for mobile devices like phones and pads/tablets.
AVG Internet Security give you improvements and new features automatically. Instead of making you wait for a single release each year, your installation is updated automatically, so you can have always the latest version of the software.
