Search and Surf-Shield
AVG LinkScanner® has two key features to protect you:
- Surf-Shield scans the page behind any link you click on or any web address you type into your browser. If the page is infected, it stops you from opening it. (This happens so quickly that you don't even notice it). AVG LinkScanner® works in real time and checks for active threats before you land on a page.
- Search-Shield scans search results and places a safety rating next to each link so you know where it's safe to click. This applies when searching with Google, Yahoo! or Bing.
Online criminals are getting smarter, but we're always ahead of them.
Our real-time AVG LinkScanner® detects threats the only time it matters - before you land on the page.
And the software is free, so why not give it a try?
Easy on you
- AVG LinkScanner® runs silently in the background - you won't even notice it until a threat is detected.
- Minimal use of system resources so it won't slow down your Mac.
- Easy to install and run.
