It is a software program that looks for malware. It is rated about 20 in the list of anti-virus software, so there are 20 of them that are better.
They are getting better, but have always been a very poor anti-virus. I am basing this on testing, not what someone said. A lot of people swear by it, but it is a poor choice.
After carefully researching this delicate subject, it is apparent that AVG uses rogue marketing and installation practices that include; making it very difficult to uninstall their Safe Search and/or AVG Toolbar software, allowing unconfirmed reports on their community forums to produce false positives and not verifying such reports until they are reported as improper (reactive validation processes), changes to browser configuration settings, re-installs after removal, and inappropriately signing their software with obscure developer sig lines to prevent identification.
AVG is also bundled in installation files for more common software titles, making it easy to install AVG accidentally by forgetting to un-check a default checked box during the installation of a desired software title. All of these things have been confirmed and admittedly so by AVG staff. Phone recordings and screen recordings are available.
