Avira PC Cleaner Is Globally Available, Use It to Detect Infections
Security company Avira announced that it made PC Cleaner globally available. Windows users from all English speaking markets can now get the free security product and use it to detect and repair infections that existing antivirus products missed.
“Use Avira PC Cleaner when you think your computer has a virus or infection that your regular AV software didn’t detect,” said Sorin Mustaca, security expert at Avira. “It will clean and repair any infections that it finds on your computer, and it won’t slow down your machine by even a fraction.”
Sometimes security products fail. Even though you have an antivirus or antimalware solution on your PC, malware could sneak past it and infect your PC. If there are signs that lead you to believe your machine has been compromised, then you need a second opinion scanner. You need a tool like Avira’s PC Cleaner.
