Avast Ultimate Review

17 Oct Avast Ultimate Review

Avast ultimate is a security application that has a high detection rate as well as fantastic additional features. Its malware scanner got the perfect score in my tests and its web security blocked a number of phishing websites that managed to get past Chrome and Firefox’s default protections. Other features include a www.greenenergyfun.com/kaspersky-software Rescue Disk, a secure browser for online banking and shopping, advanced tracker blocking and a VPN.

The interface for users of the suite is simple to navigate. Its main screen shows the list of its most important tools with clear icons to explain their purpose. Avast utilizes an orange, white and blue color scheme that is pleasing to the eye and easy to read.

In the Explore menu, you’ll access more in-depth tools’ controls, including custom scans, boot-time scanning as well as an automatic updater. You can also save specific type of scan within the « Scan Center » so that you can use it again at a later date.

In addition to the more advanced features, Avast’s anti-virus can protect against ransomware by securing your system for suspicious activity and encryption of any files that could have been targeted. It is able to detect trojan horses (a malicious program that sneaks into your computer disguised as legitimate software) and stop it from running on your system.

Avast offers 24/7 phone, email and live chat support. The free versions of the product are backed by a vast community of experts and knowledge as well as paid plans that include advanced features like identity protection Unlimited VPN, USB protection and patch management.
