Many online websites contain malicious code that can compromise the safety of your computer and some antivirus programs are not prepared to deal with them. AVG LinkScanner is a plug in that checks the safety of links and websites through two modules, Search Shield and Surf Shield. Integrated to Firefox or Internet Explorer, it will analyze the search results you get from popular search engines like Google, Yahoo and more, to make sure that they don’t have any malicious content. AVG LinkScanner is a very useful application, recommended if your antivirus doesn’t have link or website analysis protection
