Avira Free Antivirus 15.0.15
Door redactie op 3 december 2015 - 09:12Avira Free AntiVirus is een Duitse virusscanner zonder poespas die meestal goed uit anti-virus-tests naar voren komt.
Avira AntiVirus 15.0.14 en 15.0.15 zijn de afgelopen maand verschenen. Van 15.0.15 zijn nog geen release notes bekend, maar Avira 15.0.14 lost een hele lading fouten en crashes op. Onder andere enkele problemen met de mailbescherming zijn gerepareerd. Ook een kwetsbaarheid waardoor malware zich kon verbergen voor de scanner is verholpen. Lees de details hieronder.
Avira Free Antivirus 15 is te downloaden voor Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 en 10. Er zijn ook versies van Avira voor Mac OS X en Linux. En tegenwoordig zijn er gratis Android- en iOS-apps die je toestel beschermen tegen diefstal.
Let op!
De Nederlandse uitgave loopt vaak achter op de Engelse en wordt meestal pas enkele weken later bijgewerkt naar de meest recente versie.
Bedenk tijdens de installatie of je Avira Safe Search voor je browser ook wilt hebben en of je ervoor wilt kiezen om deze als standaard zoekmachine in te stellen.
