![]() In addition, their WebShield extension provides a layer of extra protection when you browse, monitoring for harmful activity at all times.įor extra protection, you can also whitelist website domains you want and submit suspicious URLs. It is supposed to show harmful websites in the red cross and non-harmful websites in a green tick.

So we think Web Shield is not always accurately showing potential malicious websites. Total AV is worth every penny.TotalAV’s Safe Browsing VPN comes with more expensive plans and includes many features of a well-recommended VPN. If your devices are without an identity protection program I suggest using this one. ![]() Another add-on to the Premium version is Identity Protection for your entire computer, passwords, bank accounts, and anything else with your ID that could be at risk. Once I have all my business software and documents on my devices, I will be making the purchase for the VPN. Right now, it's on sale for 50% off for $50 for the first year. I have included a picture of the initial setup page for the VPN. AV also offers a VPN tool that I dare say looks extremely simple, and I have always thought VPNs seemed a bit confusing to set up. Even after buying the Premium Version, there are still add-ons that are still unavailable, but with good reason. I even paid for the yearly Premium version which was only $29.99, but it came with a bunch of extra features. I had been looking for a sufficient replacement, and I had finally found it.

In closing, I'm not sure if AV is able to complete a full service (to remove tracking cookies) or that the microsoft 'spy' programs are in total control regardless of any promises from any anti virus software company. There went my option of tracking cookies to be deleted. I then tried to remove it altogether from my installed programs and found it cannot be removed or disabled. Try as I have, it kept repeating my attempts to close the microsoft edge browser which to my overt knowledge, was not in use. Browser closed, but I wasn't using the 'edge' browser so I was refused the option of 'tracking cookies removal'. Then after its first scan, I was asked if I wanted all tracking cookies removed. ![]() Other than the one after another sales pitch during the initial process, things progressed smoothly.

I have tried to send several emails to them re cancellation of my account and have used addresses that in the past they have used to send to me, begging me to stay with them and offering a lower price, yet when I've sent to them I get an automated response directing me to the website and saying the address is unmonitored by their staff. A free anti-virus system would be better than wasting good money on TotalAV See critical reviews Reviews (112) They have no email address on their website, no telephone number and no online chat facility despite stating at the bottom that "Need Help? Check out our Knowledge Base, Video Guides or Contact us 24/7 >". The worst comes when you try to contact them - you can't. Activate WebShield on your device/s and it might stay active for a day or too, if you're lucky, then it switches off. The spam emails keep flooding through to your Inbox, not the Junk file even.
