What does this mean?

99%* of all online threats are delivered through the web and they cannot be stopped with traditional anti-virus methods.

These threats can survive on familiar, big-name sites and they can come and go within hours. Just clicking on one can get you into trouble. You can end up losing your money, your identity and your most precious digital memories.

Why do I need it?

This is where AVG LinkScanner® for Mac plays a key role.

With it you can surf, search, email, shop, and social network knowing that the pages you will visit are safe.

  • AVG LinkScanner® checks each web page in real time before it opens on your Mac. If it sees trouble ahead, it stops you. It's quick and easy to install, won't get in your way and it's free.
  • With an ever-increasing Mac market share, these attacks can soon start to target Mac users with more intensity, so it is key that you stay safe.

At AVG we want to ensure we are being proactive in addressing this.
