AVG continues to deliver essential free antivirus protection with the launch of AVG AntiVirus FREE 2016. It goes beyond simply detecting and removing viruses on your PC by blocking infected links as you browse, checking files before they're downloaded.
and helping protect your personal data online and on your PC with enhanced privacy features. With 2016, we've improved our core engine and its accuracy, and included a new cloud-based detection method. And because we know that security is just as important as usability, AntiVirus Free 2016 features a revamped, easier-to-use design.
We've been hard at work optimizing our core engine to increase its detection accuracy. That includes better detection of screen-locker ransomware and improved scanning of all downloadable files to keep you safe from an exponentially expanding pool of threats.
