AVG Internet Security
The heart of AVG Anti-Virus is the checking engine - you can imagine it as a "black box" into which requests to check objects enter and the box returns information indicating if these objects are virus-free or infected.
The checking engine includes an application interface for communication with other AVG Anti-Virus components (Resident Shield, Tests, E-mail scanner modules and plug-ins etc.) which use this service. It was created with an emphasis on AVG Anti-Virus modularity and is common for all mentioned components.
Compucare can provide you with the complete range of AVG Anti-virus and PC Security solutions for both home and business use, including the award winning AVG Internet Security Suite.
