The AVG Online Security extension has been discontinued but you will still receive the protection from AVG Internet Security,
The Web Shield actively scans data that is transferred when you browse the internet to prevent malware from being downloaded and run on your PC.
For more details you can check this article: | AVG. (https://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?l=en&urlname=avg-online-security-firefox-discontinuation-faq#:~:text=Can%20I%20continue%20to%20use,features%20on%20other%20supported%20browsers.)
Thank you and keep us updated.
Looking at some of the answers to other posts re the Firefox extension removal has got me a bit confused as to what security remains when using that browser. One answer to a post says that Webshield will still work/protect when using Firefox in the future. Also the cookie protection.
Is this correct?
