AVG stands for “Anti-Virus Guard,” the initial name of Grisoft’s early antivirus program. Grisoft makes free and paid AVG brand antivirus software available for download and purchase via the Internet. The software has a hard drive scanner for virus detection, an e-mail scanner for incoming spam or viral web messages, and a “virus vault” for containing infected files.
