avast! Anti Virus
avast! is a package of applications that aim to protect your computer from a possible virus infection. If you use it correctly, periodically, and in coordination with other programs such as data backup utilities, it should ensure that you radically reduce the risk of your computer being infected by a virus, and thus avoid losing your private data.
avast! contains all the properties that you would expect in a professional antivirus program. It has a Simple User Interface, suitable for beginners and inexperienced users; it also has an Enhanced Interface that gives the user access to any possible setting and full control of avast!. Of course, avast! includes a resident protection part that watches any possibly dangerous operations performed during the daily work on the computer, such as running applications, therefore effectively avoiding virus infection. avast! is able to check both incoming and outgoing e-mail messages, processed by most of today's e-mail clients. There is a command-line interface for avast!, too.
