Avira GmbH is a German antivirus software company. Its antivirus applications are based on the AntiVir scan engine also known as "Luke Filewalker" (referencing Luke Skywalker), first launched in 1988. It was called "H+BEDV Datentechnik GmbH" when it was founded. However, due to aesthetic purposes only, the name was changed to what it currently is now. Avira's engine has been licensed to Ashampoo antivirus Ad-Aware and Webroot WebWasher. Avira is also one of the most widely used Antivirus in the world, with 100 million users worldwide as of September 2009.[1] they support a foundation created by the companies founder and CEO Tjark Auerbach, called the Auerbach Stiftung(Foundation). They support charitable and social projects as well as art, culture and science, to help alleviate those experiencing spiritual, mental, physical, and financial problems.Product
Avira AntiVir Personal is for personal use only and free of charge. Like most antivirus software, it scans disks for malware and also runs as a background process, checking each opened and closed file. It can detect and possibly remove rootkits.[2] It also performs Internet updates (daily by default) in which it opens a window, with an advertisement suggesting that the user purchase Avira AntiVir Premium or Avira Premium Security Suite. Avira updated all their products to version 9.0 as of March 2009.
As a free service, Avira offers a bootable rescue CD to all users, regardless of whether they have any Avira products installed (free or non-free), and irrespective of the machine's operating system. This CD contains its own bootable Linux-based operating system as well as the AntiVir program and its latest virus database. If a computer cannot be booted, the CD may be used to boot the machine into the AntiVir program, then to scan for and remove detectable viruses and other malware, thereby possibly restoring normal boot and operation.
Avira AntiVir Premium has several improvements over the free version, most notably:
* Email scanning (POP3 and SMTP)
* WebGuard to block access to malicious sites
Avira AntiVir Premium Security Suite Has some more improvements over both versions, including:
* Anti Spam for Email
* Firewall blocks Hackers
* Backup System to protect and secure important data
* AntiBot prevents dangerous bot networks from taking over your system
* Parental Controls blocks unsutable websites for Children and Teens
