After installing an anti virus to a new pc, make sure it is up-to-date via internet. Connect the internet only when your are downloading and updating your anti-virus. After updating your antivirus, unplug it from the network and start scanning your pc to clear the early birds that have accessed your pc from the network.
AVG have a choice of either a free version, or a full version. A full version requires a fee. A free version only consist basic protection, which is anti-virus and anti-spyware. A full version have additional protection that protects you from hackers, allows safe surfing of the internet (which notifies you whether the web is dangerous to enter) and downloading via instant messenger (scanning your item right after any downloads.), as well as repelling from phishing and email scams. Phishing means the criminally fraudulent process of attempting to acquire any sensitive information, such as username, passwords, and credit card details by pretending to be a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication.
