Thread: AVG Internet Security 9.0 Business Edition

AVG became well known and popular among most users because of its free edition. This Business Edition of their Internet Security suite is designed for larger offices and has protection for things like a local anti-spam server and the e-mail server itself. The interface itself hasn't changed from previous versions. Updating of the suite can be done from within the software. For those on dialup connections or connections with bandwidth limits, you can also update through a folder - this way your friend could download the updates for you. For some reason, there's even an option to rollback to previous virus definitions.

Like in many of the other suites, protection for instant messengers is also present for
Yahoo!, ICQ and MSN, but only for the official clients. The advanced menus have many more features like the very simple to use dashboard, which just shows you all of the components of the suite and their current status. Double clicking on it shows you some of the settings and exceptions you can allow. Click on the Advanced settings menu and you find an indepth range of settings. Each of the menus and options are very simple to understand, so you don't have to be some ki nd of a security expert to figure your way around it.



As for performance, the memory consumption while scanning didn't cross 10 to 20 MB, but the CPU utilisation kept spiking between 30 and 80 per cent which can be annoying This is a good option if you want something that is thorough and that lets you make fine changes to the behaviour of the suite.
