However, because AVG is a free program, I experienced a lot of pop-up ads. Each function is represented by a large icon that glows red when it isn't set up and green when it's ready to use. This free antivirus program is super easy to install and use. This tool looks for outdated programs and drivers - where ransomware tends to sneak in - and gives suggestions on where to download a legitimate patch or updated version. While it doesn't have a lot of extras, this free Mac antivirus impressed me with including a vulnerability scanner. It quarantined the entire folder instead of waiting for each file to download.Įven when I allowed some threat to download completely, AVG was able to find them quickly.
I was really impressed with how well AVG recognized the zipped test file as containing malware during the decompression process. This program stopped 100% of Mac threats and 95% of Windows threats during testing. Though AVG Antivirus for Mac is free, it doesn't skip on security features.
