avast! internet security 8

Hi friends if you are using avast! antivirus then you should have known about the new version 8 and all the new features.But here is my experience with avast! internet security 8 which keeps me secure from all the viruses and other pesky things .........

Installation

The installation was zippy and easy.The single click installation keeps it easy for novice users while the advanced user can select custom install which provides full control over what's going to be installed.
The installation took just 3 minutes which is one of the fastest.After installation a quick scan was carried out which ensures the computer is clean.


User interface ( UI )


First let me talk about the user interface.You can see that everything is well organised and looks pretty modern and touch friendly.The settings are accessible from the top right corner where advanced users will find more options which provides granular control over the program.



Clicking on the scan button triggers quick scan immediately but you can change it to automatically trigger full scan when you click scan on the home tab.Other important features are also accessible form the home tab.
The features will be described later on this post.But for the UI part, avast! internet security steals me heart.It looks fantastic and easy on eyes.

Features 

avast! is well known for innovating new technologies for protection and version 8 does the same with a bunch of features but all of them to protect from all.The different shields keep you away from all the threats while the additional features like sandbox,Safezone,webrep,firewall,adblock,browser clean up and software updater give you the confidence of security.

 The software updater in internet security automatically download's the update and installs in the background.
The user has only thing to do that is to click the fix button and viola within some minutes avast! internet security updates it.A great feature to avoid outdated software's in the pc also it helps your pc to avoid security problems

The Safezone provides a new virtual desktop where you can bank or do sensitive things safely.It also protects user's data from keyloggers.It is a virtual place with a browser made from the open source chromium project.

 The firewall keeps it simple and remains silent after the first popup.It allows advanced users to tweak the settings.The best part of the firewall is that it never show any pop ups and it auto-decides using the white list from avast!.

The browser clean up is a new feature version 8.It comes bundled with all the versions of avast!.It is one of the nice features from avast!.It removes the most stubborn toolbars,addons and extension which can not be removed manually.It does not remove the good addons like adblock,WOT etc...


Conclusion

avast! internet security provides top tier security.It is also awarded regularly by the leading testers.
So avast! internet security is one of the best antivirus.I recommend it personally.It has very nice UI and has got many features to protect you.

Speed up your web browser :Getting the best of the web.

Have you ever wondered why your browser loads web pages very slowly.Here are some ways to improve the performance of your web browser..

The latest browser always shines !
Your browser was speedy on the old days but later started to loose it's speed and becomes unresponsive regularly then you may be using a outdated browser or it's high time since you updated your browser . Updating the most current version of the browser not only provides increase in speed, also gives you new features and a more secure web.

Less extensions Less hassles .
Extensions are the small piece of software which lives inside the browser which can add new features to your browser but unfortunately extensions have the habit of decreasing your browser's performance.So remember to remove the unused extensions and if possible at least disable them.After this step you will find your browser starting up faster and will be more responsive and will gear the web and make it faster.

Your computer, it's the heart.Keep it clean 
Your computer is the place where you see the web.Your computer should be kept up to date with latest patches and updates.Clean the junk files which will slowdown the computer and and also the browser.Use a tool like CCleaner to do this.You can also remove the old and broken registry keys.Keep your antivirus program updated
Still suffering with your browser.Then it's time to change.
If your current browser is still slow after doing the steps above then your browser is the culprit.So it's time to change to a better web browser like Chrome,Firefox,Opera.

The innovative Browsers



Today’s browsers are more faster,simpler and feature packed...The old days are gone when we used to see website as simple HTML page.. Today’s browsers emphasize on security,speed and simplicity of the browser..

They all provide high quality features...Some of them even come with the support for HTML5 for the future web.
But who is in the top spot in innovating new features.Here is the result after a small research on browsers....

The major browsers 


Google chrome
Google has made it’s best out of the chrome browser which is based on the open source technology of Chromium.Google Chrome keeps it simple and has a bunch of features to gear the web forward.. They have been introducing something new and useful from the launch of the browser..This browser tops most of the benchmarks thrown to modern browsers.Excels in speed,simplicity and it’s UI seems simple and uncluttered which makes this browser easy to use for even novice users.While the advanced users can also use this masterpiece to their work.....

Opera
Opera has long stood all over these years and still survives in the modern world with it’s Modern and simple UI.Opera has been innovative in all the ways possible.It supports the latest web standards.Opera is one of the most experienced browser in the world.It has been there on the web before Mozilla !!!.The latest incarnation of this browser is fast,simple and light with chock full of features.It has been moving the web forward yet Chrome seems more faster and simpler.

Mozilla firefox
Mozilla firefox is one of the fastest browsers on the earth with features which will make you fall in love with it.For instance it’s customizable UI with themes and millions of addons make it most powerful browser on the world.The gecko engine is fast and snappy.Mozilla have put all their efforts to keep their browser current and updated.They support modern technology and seems they are also working on a sleek browser for the future too.Yet this browser’s instability is been a big problem because people load it with lots addons which makes your browser a bit slow and hard in the corners.They should cut down the memory usage of this browser.In other words it is an awesome browser.

Microsoft Internet explorer
Last but not the least this browser has been living for decades with us and Windows.The default browser of Windows doesn’t seem to give with it’s latest browser.Internet explorer 9 changed it all from the boot to load the website.And now Internet explorer 10 has taken it’s advantages and improved practically everything.This browser is simple and modern too. It’s security features are the best of all browser if kept up-to date.With more than 90% of malware blocked by it’s own without the need of a antivirus program.It is fast and lovely.But we get a major update very rarely and late.This makes this browser to sit at the last bench.The security vulnerabilities make it more problematic....
