The main windows has tabs shown on the left, and information on each one of them is shown on the right.

In Overview you can see the status of PC protection and Internet Protection, the last scan and backup you have performed, the last update that was installed, and other such details.

PC protection is available for the system scanner, and you can see all the details performed on a real-time protection scan.

If you go to Web protection, you can see how many URLS Avira has detected, and how many of them were scanned, blocked or ignored. Mail protection is available for both incoming and outgoing e-mail.

Unfortunately, the backup and firewall options are not available in trial mode. They would have meant a huge bonus.

Finally, if you choose the Administration tab, you can see which threats have been quarantined, the schedule of your scanner, reports, and any events that have may occurred.

We have tested this antivirus software on our computers, and after a few scans and additional measures, we wiped out every threat found by Avira..
