If I’m already using Avast’s SecureLine, what additional protection
will I get when adding AntiTrack ???
It works in conjunction with a VPN – VPN’s encrypt your traffic and mask your IP, but they don’t stop trackers which can identify you based on your PC, your browser, existing cookies, settings, tracking pixels, the list goes on
AntiTrack Premium obfuscates your true “digital fingerprint” as well as stops tracking attempts and targeted advertising (everything from analytics scripts to advertising cookies) and reports on how many times attempts were blocked.
However, it’s not an ad-blocker or a cookie blocker. It’s more of a “spoofer.” The nice thing is that it protects your online privacy without breaking the Internet A lot of extensions that block scripts will do this effectively but render a lot of websites at least ugly, sometimes unusable. And of course there’s sites with ad-blocker paywalls.
So in my opinion, it’s a good companion to SecureLine VPN.
I think the official page sums it up pretty well too: https://www.avast.com/en-us/antitrack
Thanks for the information Pete.
I installed this anti track pgm yesterday and it slowed my PC down dramatically. So why is this happening?? do i need to disable any google add blockers etc? i had to do a system restore just to get the internet back usable so i could post this reply ? If i can’t resolve this i would like to cancel and get my money back.
Any info will help
Thanks
Keith
Keith, I’d recommend that you contact our support team directly. They’ll want to get more information about your PC (specs, etc) as well as which browsers you are using, what plugins you have installed, and other details about your system. You can reach support here: https://support.avast.com/en-us
Hello Pete,
Is it possible to try Avast AntiTrack without buying it ?
