AntiVir (also known as "Little Red Umbrella") is an excellent antivirus software developed by the German company Avira. Its icon is a little red umbrella, hence it's also called the "German Rising" (a reference to another popular antivirus brand in China). It has received very positive reviews on various forums, and many computers in laboratories and classrooms are equipped with this antivirus software. The AntiVir personalEdition Classic version is free, while the AntiVir Premium version is paid. After testing, it was found that with the same virus package, both versions have the same virus detection effect, and there is almost no difference in speed! Like NOD32, AntiVir has a simple interface, strong virus detection and elimination capabilities, and low memory usage, making it very suitable for users with low-end configurations. However, there is currently no Chinese version available. You can download it via HTTP or FTP.
