Performance-minded PC enthusiasts are always looking for anti-malware products that are A) free, and B) effective, while being light on system resources. The latest version of AVG's free anti-virus software - AVG Free 8.0 - seems to connect solidly on both requirements, adding spyware detection and removal features and LinkScanner, an app that checks search engine result links for nasty code - all while boosting the speed of the scanning process. AVG's version 8.0 anti-virus software has already garnered major security acclaim, achieving a VB 100% mark from Virus Bulletin's last three tests, and receiving checkmark certification from West Coast Labs for virus detection and cleaning, and for Trojan Horse detection. AVG Free 8.0 will be available for download tomorrow, April 24.
