Avg Anti-Virus 2012 is the commercial version of the company's malware-hunting tool, which delivers everything you'd expect from an antivirus engine, and adds a few useful extra features for good measure. If you've used any AVG product in the past year or so then the interface will be familiar. Anti-Virus 2012 launches on an Overview tab where you'll find icons for each of the programs features; clicking on Anti-Virus displays key program settings, then you can manually launch your first scan, or set up a scheduled scan or two, in just a few clicks. There are so many other protective layers, though, that AVG Anti-Virus 2012 feels more like a security suite than an antivirus tool. So LinkScanner helps to keep malicious sites at bay while you're browsing; Email Protection examines incoming messages for potential threats; there's a separate rootkit scanner; and Identity Protection monitors program behaviour and automatically blocks actions which could lead to identity theft. In addition, the program now integrates icons for a couple of AVG addons; Family Safety (parental controls) and LiveKive online backup. These remain separate and packages and you'll have to pay more to use them, but this needn't be much; clicking the Family Safety icon revealed that a 3 PC, one year subscription would cost a minimal £0.95. Why choose the commercial version rather than AVG Free? The key advantage is download protection. AVG Anti-Virus 2012 checks the files you download (or receive via ICQ, MSN or Yahoo! instant messaging) against both its own scanning engine and the LinkScanner. You also get priority technical support and more frequent updates. But whichever version you use, you'll benefit from a new focus on performance in the 2012 editions which reduces their impact on your PCs speed and cuts scanning times.

Not to mention they scan links on the internet making sure you don't go on a site that will have a bunch of spyware installing on your computer. Also, I feel much safer, now that AVG now has a social networking protector and a convenient gadget just to scan your computer instead of opening the AVG interface.

It's only for UK, I think. When I go to the site, a popup shows, "Georestriction warning! Sorry, due to licensing restrictions, this offer is not available in your country/territory. Try again tomorrow." I live in the US. Are the keys for UK AVG anti-viruses only? Could you ask someone in UK to get the license key and use it in the US? Thanks for letting us know anyways.
It is a shame it is only for the UK. I love AVG, it is a great Anti-virus. I am sure there has to be a US code. I used to get email offers from them all the time to try out other products of theirs, but I haven't had any lately.
