AVG Antivirus is one of the most popular products on the market, especially thanks to the freeware license which allows people to use it as long as they want without paying for it. Sure, there are some limitations, such as the lack of some functions, but since it's quite efficient and available for free, AVG quickly captured the public's attention. Tomorrow, AVG Technologies, the developer of the application, will release the 8.0 version of the application which will bring even more security features for free.

Beside all the functions you already know, AVG Antivirus Free 8.0 will come with anti-spyware protection and safe-searching utilities. In an era when more and more websites attempt to deploy all kinds of infections of the vulnerable systems they find, such a security product is pretty welcome, especially when it can be downloaded and used for free.

"With the release of AVG Free 8.0, we are underscoring our belief that all computer users, regardless of their computer usage needs, have the right to a safe and worry-free computing experience," says Karel Obluk, chief technology officer at AVG Technologies. "However, it is important for users to remember that AVG Free does not protect against the full range of today's web-borne threats. For complete protection, users should consider AVG's commercial products, which scan for and block threats before they can infect the computer or disrupt the user experience."

For those of you who don't know, the developer also offers a premium version of the antivirus which is already equipped with anti-spyware, anti-rootkit, web shield, LinkScanner and technical support. This version is available for $34.99.

In case you want to download the 7.5 version of AVG Antivirus Free, you can get it straight from Softpedia. However, don't forget to get back soon in order to find the link for the 8.0 flavor scheduled for tomorrow.
