Avast SecureLine VPN
Surf the web securely and access any site regardless of its restrictions.
Browsing the Web securely is no longer a luxury reserved for distrustful people. Keeping our private data private has become an integral part of our most basic security needs.
By hiding your IP with a virtual one, Avast SecureLine VPN allows you to visit and interact with any website knowing that your activities will never be associated with your true digital identity. This tool offers you virtual IPs from a long list of locations from all over the world, letting you know at any given time which of them are ‘optimal’ — i.e., safer than others.
The program can be set up to launch automatically as soon as you start up your computer or you open your favorite browser. This VPN solution will integrate seamlessly with the most widely used browsers, and — needless to say — with whatever other Avast security product you may have installed on your computer.
Avast offers you a 60-day free trial for you to check the program before registering, though you will be asked for your credit card or Paypal details beforehand for future payments when the trial period ends. Without that information, you will not be able to enjoy the privacy that this tool offers. Providing such sensitive information to a company specialized in protecting your privacy without entering any serious contractual relationship with them seems paradoxical, to say the least.
