Antivirus vs protection

I tried to download AVG antivirus free from the AVG site and what is downloaded is titled AVG Protection. The screen says it is antivirus but I'm not sure Protection is the exact same thing. Is it. Thank you.

Hi Jo,
I'm sorry to hear that you're facing issues with the installation of AVG Anti Virus Free. Not to worry, I'll help you with it. Please follow all the steps and run the AVG Remover and then the AVG Clear as provided in Step 1 of this article: https://goo.gl/uPvqc1 to remove the AVG Old files from your PC.

Once removed, please install the AVG Anti Virus Free from https://www.avg.com/en-us/download

Note: Please select Basic Protection to initiate the installation of AVG Anti Virus Free
