Keeping people safe all over the world

But don’t just take our word for it.

Steve J. McWilliams

AVG AntiVirus FREE is an excellent product that does not slow my machine down. It has never crashed, is simple to update, and, possibly most important, seems to catch 99% of any viruses I come across on the fly.

Carl

AVG Free is easy to download and install. It runs in the background without hogging memory and has blocked and/or removed several items on my PC.

M. Cady

I cannot rely only on Microsoft's protection, because I have important data on my PC, like accounting information of my company. I also shop online quite often. I am satisfied with AVG.

Protect your Mac and mobile too

It’s not just PCs that need cybersecurity protection — your Mac and mobile devices are also at risk from malware and other common online threats. No matter what’s on your desk or in your pocket, AVG has a security solution uniquely tailored to your digital lifestyle.

Mac

Android

iOS

AVG AntiVirus FREE for Mac insulates your macOS computer against Mac-specific threats, and it detects PC and mobile malware as well. That way, you won’t accidentally pass along any malware from your Mac to family, friends, or colleagues who use other devices. Scan and remove threats on your computer, and help protect the folks you care about.

Did you know that phones can get malware too? Bring our powerful anti-malware solution to the palm of your hand with AVG AntiVirus for Android — included free with AVG AntiVirus FREE. Defend your Android against malware, and keep your device out of the wrong hands with the built-in Anti-Theft Phone Tracker.

While you’re not going to get a virus on your iPhone, you do put your data at risk every time you connect to unsecured public Wi-Fi. But with the Wi-Fi Security scanner feature in AVG Mobile Security for iPhone & iPad, you’ll know in advance whether or not a network is safe. And if your data gets leaked, AVG's Identity Protection feature will alert you so you can change your password and keep hackers out of your accounts.

FAQ

How can I scan and remove viruses and malware?

The quickest, easiest, and most reliable way to scan and remove viruses and other malware is to use a specialized malware removal tool like AVG AntiVirus FREE. You can also remove malware and malicious apps from your phone with our dedicated mobile tool.

Will this tool remove all types of malware?

Viruses aren’t the only type of malware, but AVG AntiVirus FREE is equipped to remove the full spectrum of malware threats. So yes — this tool will clear up nearly any malware infection you might come across.

Won't Windows Defender remove malware automatically?

While it can detect and remove many types of malware on its own, Windows Defender isn’t enough. If you’re looking for protection against the full range of online threats, you’ll be safer with a dedicated malware removal tool like AVG AntiVirus FREE.

What's the difference between malware and a virus?

Malware refers to any type of harmful software or code, while a virus is just one type of malware. A virus’s signature trait is its ability to inject its code into your computer’s software, then replicate and spread itself to other systems. Other types of malware work differently.
