Some of the most popular anti virus software applications are:
- Norton
- Avast
- McAfee
- AVG
- Microsoft
Antivirus software are available online and as per prevalent global practices, they are, first of all offered ‘Free’, for the trial version, few days to the few months after which the users are asked to pay for the services which is, normally, a handsome amount to be payable in foreign currency.
Like the net surfer, I was very much worried about the cyber interference of the antiviruses on my computers though I tried many antivirus software but AVG appeared to be the best.
AVG suits my needs due to its free edition but its actual paid version was a little costly. When I compared the available components of Free AVG and AVG Internet Security, following table appeared:
| Components | AVG Free Edition | AVG Internet Security 2011 |
| Anti Virus | Yes | Yes |
| Anti Spyware | Yes | Yes |
| Links Scanner | Yes | Yes |
| Resident Shield | Yes | Yes |
| Family Safety | Yes | Yes |
| LiveKive | Yes | Yes |
| Email Scanner | Yes | Yes |
| License | Yes | |
| Update Manager | Yes | Yes |
| Anti Rootkit | Yes | Yes |
| PC Analyzer | Yes | Yes |
| Identity Protection | Yes | Yes |
| Security Toolbar | Yes | Yes |
| Firewall | No | Yes |
| Online Shield | No | Yes |
| System tools | No | Yes |
| Anti-Spam | No | Yes |
During the analysis period, one of my friends came to my help and advised me to get the AVG Internet Security with validity up to 2018 and after installation and activation, I found that the code worked and I got the validation upto 2018.
2. After installation, run AVG and go to help menu and click activate.
3. In the pop-up menu, enter this code:
8MEH-RFR8J-PTS8Q-92ATA-O4WHO-JEMBR-ACED
4. Click ‘activate’
5. Another dialog box will appear saying, “Your new AVG Software License gives you access to additional features. Do you want to install them?”, click ‘yes’
6. Now the installation of new features will start and after the installation completes, run AVG and your Antivirus would be upgraded to ‘AVG Internet Security’ with validation upto 2018.
