Near-perfect malware protection, the latest detection technology, and broad-spectrum cover from cyber threats make Avira and McAfee top names in antivirus security. Each one comes with unique extra features to keep you safe. Avira is a strong Windows product that will optimize your device for security. The app upgrades your built-in firewall and provides anti-ransomware and anti-phishing tools. The PC tune-up feature deletes outdated, temporary, and duplicate files. You also get payment protection for online shopping and a handy price comparison chrome extension. Avira’s included articles and video tutorials are ideal for beginners and the \"Virus Lab\" will teach you about different kinds of malware and new threats. It’s a great value for the money. McAfee antivirus products are available for all major operating systems and can be used on unlimited devices. It comes with a full firewall and an anti-phishing browser extension. The social media guard keeps you safe on networking sites, while the Search Management Console lets you locate and remotely wipe lost devices. Finally, a digital file shredder ensures hackers can’t access your deleted files. With all these extras, you may think the software is slow but the PC tune-up feature corrects that.
