There are plenty of antivirus programs but some can put a heavy load on your system, eating up the processor power you need for your applications. Many people even turn their virus protection off when they are working to speed up their machines, leaving themselves wide open to attack. To make things worse, these complex antivirus programs are often equally complicated to use.

At Ashampoo we believe tools are there to work for you, not to take over your computer. Ashampoo AntiVirus gives you comprehensive protection against viruses, worms, trojans and dialers, but itÆs so efficient you wonÆt even notice

itÆs there. And itÆs so easy to use that it wonÆt waste any of your valuable time. Just set it and forget it and get on with more important things.

Once you have installed Ashampoo AntiVirus protection is automatic. It checks all new files and activity on your computer for both known threats and suspicious behavior and stops attacks before they can do any damage.

In addition to known threats the programÆs advanced heuristic analysis can also identify unknown malware and  viruses by its behavior and block it before it does any damage.
