舊電腦想裝防護軟體,Avast Internet Security 還能用嗎

你最近是不是覺得電腦變慢了,開機要等很久,上網時又老擔心會不會點到怪連結、收信收到詐騙信?你想找一套防護軟體裝上去,至少圖個安心,但又不想花大錢、也不想裝那種綁手綁腳、動不動就跳出來叫你升級的龐然大物。你只是想要一套能擋住明顯威脅、讓你在家上網或網路銀行時不會提心吊膽的工具。

一般人遇到這種狀況,第一個念頭是「那就裝免費防毒啊」,但免費版通常只做基本掃描,防火牆、進階網路防護、安全瀏覽這些功能不是被拔掉就是要你另外付費。另一條路是直接買整套付費防護,但對只是想要基本防護的人來說,又覺得用不到那麼多功能。這類工具的切入點,其實是「在免費與付費之間,找一套功能完整、但授權方式比較有彈性的方案」,讓你先試用、確認合用再決定,而不是一頭熱直接刷下去。

Avast Internet Security 的操作介面

01Avast Internet Security 這套軟體能擋住駭客入侵嗎?

它內建雙向防火牆,會過濾進出你電腦的網路流量,並隔離可疑檔案,這是它官方列出的主要防護方式之一。另外它也有沙箱功能,可以讓你在隔離環境中執行不確定的應用程式或開啟檔案,降低直接感染的風險。不過防火牆不是萬能,駭客入侵手法很多,它只能擋住已知威脅和部分可疑行為,不是絕對保證。

02它除了防毒,還有什麼其他功能?

根據官方說明,它還包含家用網路掃描器,可以檢查你的路由器與網路是否有潛在問題;SafeZone 安全區提供一個隔離的虛擬環境,讓你在裡面進行網路銀行、購物和付款;SecureDNS 會加密你裝置與 DNS 伺服器之間的流量,防止 DNS 劫持;另外還有垃圾郵件過濾,在開啟郵件前先幫你判斷是否為垃圾信或釣魚信。

03用它的 SafeZone 上網買東西真的比較安全嗎?

SafeZone 的設計是提供一個獨立、隔離的虛擬環境,讓你在裡面進行銀行、購物、付款等敏感操作,降低被側錄或惡意程式干擾的風險。它也可以設定白名單網站,當你前往這些網站時自動啟動 SafeZone。不過它只保護你在這個環境內的操作,如果你跳出 SafeZone 用一般瀏覽器上網,就不在它的保護範圍內。

04它能不能掃描家裡的 Wi-Fi 網路?

可以。它內建 Home Network Scanner,一鍵就能掃描你目前連線的網路,檢查路由器與連線裝置是否有潛在的安全問題,例如弱密碼、未更新的韌體或可疑的連線裝置。這功能是針對家用網路設計的,目的是在駭客攻擊你的路由器之前先發現漏洞。掃描結果會列出問題點,但修復方式還是要你自己去處理。

05它會擋掉垃圾郵件嗎?

會。官方功能說明中提到,它具備反垃圾郵件功能,可以在你開啟郵件之前先判斷這封信是不是垃圾郵件或釣魚信,避免你被詐騙。不過這功能只涵蓋郵件層面,如果你用網頁版信箱(例如 Gmail 網頁介面),它的過濾效果可能有限,因為郵件已經先經過你信箱服務商的伺服器了。

06舊電腦裝這套會不會跑不動?

這套軟體支援 Windows XP 到 Windows 10,包含 32 位元與 64 位元版本,所以對舊系統的相容性算是廣的。但官方資料沒有列出最低硬體需求,實際跑起來順不順,取決於你電腦的 CPU、記憶體和硬碟速度。建議你先裝 30 天試用版,在平常使用的狀況下觀察看看會不會明顯變慢,再決定要不要繼續用。

07不太懂電腦的人適合用嗎?

它的介面設計算是偏向一般使用者,主要功能都有對應的按鈕,例如一鍵掃描網路、開啟 SafeZone 等,不需要太多手動設定。不過它有些功能(例如防火牆規則、沙箱)對不熟的人來說可能不知道什麼時候該用,預設狀態下它會自動運作,但如果你想要細部調整,還是需要一點基本概念。整體來說,安裝後放著讓它跑,對不熟的人是可以接受的。

08它跟免費版差在哪?

根據官方說明,這套是付費版本,包含防火牆、SafeZone、SecureDNS、反垃圾郵件、家用網路掃描等完整功能,而免費版通常只提供基本防毒掃描。另外,這套有提供電子郵件支援,也可以付費升級到電話支援。不過要注意,它本身是 30 天試用版,試用期過後要付費才能繼續用,免費版則是可以一直用但功能較少。

09它一直沒更新,還值得裝嗎?

它的版本紀錄顯示,收錄的 15 個版本中,最近一次更新是 2019 年,而且近 24 個月都沒有任何更新。防護軟體如果長期不更新,代表它可能不認識新的病毒或攻擊手法,防護效果會隨時間遞減。如果你在意的是「裝了之後能持續獲得最新防護」,這套目前的更新狀況可能不符合你的需求,這點需要你自己衡量。

10我已經有 Windows 內建防毒了,還需要它嗎?

Windows 內建防毒(例如 Microsoft Defender)提供的是基本防毒與部分網路防護,而這套軟體多了防火牆、SafeZone、SecureDNS、反垃圾郵件等功能,涵蓋範圍更廣。但如果你只是要基本防毒,內建的其實就夠用了。這套的價值在於那些額外的網路防護功能,如果你用不到,那就不一定要裝。

11它跟 Avast Free Antivirus 比起來,哪個比較多人用?

在評分人數上,Avast Free Antivirus 有 3416 人評分,而這套 Avast Internet Security 只有 97 人評分,差距很明顯。這不代表哪個比較好,但可以推測免費版的使用者基數大很多,討論、教學、問題回報的資源也相對多。如果你在猶豫要付費還是免費,可以先看看免費版的功能是否已經滿足你的需求。

12這套軟體能永久使用嗎?

不行。它的授權型式是 Trial,也就是試用版,官方說明也明確寫著「30 days trial version」,代表你只能免費試用 30 天。試用期過後,你必須付費購買授權才能繼續使用完整功能。如果你不想付費,可以考慮改用 Avast Free Antivirus,它雖然功能較少,但可以長期免費使用。
