Welcome AVG Free Users

AVG 7.5 products have been upgraded to version 8.0. You must replace your current product by installing a new 8.0 version.

Extend your protections beyond just viruses

Protection against viruses is essential for your PC. But today's attackers are familiar with this kind of protection and have figured out how to bypass it, targeting you in other ways.

How well are you protected right now?

  • Do you have a firewall? Does it have both inbound and outbound protection?
  • Are you alerted and blocked from malicious web sites and infective downloads?
  • Are all your programs fully patched?
  • Do you use layered security (multiple security programs) to give yourself solid protection against identity theft and loss of personal information?

We recommend you choose the enhanced protection of AVG Internet Security 8.0

What people say

"Downloaded the upgrade version of AVG Internet Security last week. Definitely the best security system in the world. I would recommend it to anyone. Very easy to install and run. Your updates are now done without me knowing, with no 'pop ups' as there was with the older version. I cannot see me running a computer without AVG in future. Keep up the good work."

Searching the web? Surfing? Chatting? Downloading?

If the answer is yes then we strongly recommend that you upgrade to AVG Internet Security 8.0. If you are interested in more details about your security, please go trough the list below a check which protection you do and do not have.

Protection levels

Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware

The foundation of your protection. Without antivirus and antispyware protection, your computer and data are at extreme risk.

AVG Free contains basic antivirus protection only.

Safe Downloads & Instant Messaging

The essential protection for Internet use. File downloads, chatting with your friends and family - today these are everyday things. Protecting yourself in these areas is now another important part of your security and privacy protection.

AVG Free does not contain the new Safe Downloads & Instant Messaging protection (Web Shield technology) so it does not screen your downloads and communication for viruses and spyware.

For this protection, please download AVG Internet Security

Safe Search & Surf

The essential protection for Internet use. New web threats (called exploits or drive-by downloads) can infect your computer just by visiting a web page! Our new technology ensures the safety of search results, web pages, favorites & bookmarks before you open them.

AVG Free only includes the Safe Search protection which provides you with advice on search results. It does not protect against infected pages. Only AVG paid versions contain the Safe Surf technology.

For full active protection, please download AVG Internet Security
