Release date: 15 April 2008

Pros

AVG Internet Security 8.0 includes Linkscanner technology to block malicious Web sites

Cons

AVG Internet Security 8.0 is resource heavy; flags some legitimate programs as potentially harmful; doesn't provide additional information on malicious software beyond identification; doesn't provide adequate antiphishing protection; installs the Yahoo search engine

Verdict

AVG Internet Security 8.0 provides strong protection against malicious Web sites, but its full-system scans sometimes tax system resources and produce false positives.
