  • Fast scans, Good engine for free
  • Slow bootup times, Trips up on too many false positives
  • AVG Free 2012's renewed focus on performance keeps scans zippy, but struggles with slowing down your boot time and too many false positives.

  • Linkscanner efficace, Bonne détection, Performances en progrès
