It comes with a built-in VPN that lets you stay protected and get online quickly. It is based on Chromium. This means that it appears as if it works, and also supports Chrome extensions.

Avast Secure Browser includes a variety of security and privacy extension already installed. They include an adblocker and antiphishing extension, an extension for anti-tracking and fingerprint disguise, HTTPS encryption, extension guard, password manager and even the ability to double-check credentials on websites such as HaveIBeenPwned. All of these extensions from the browser’s Security & Privacy Center. You can also modify each extension to suit your preferences.

The ad blocker is quite robust, and the strict blocking mode can be used to keep most ads from being seen. It also blocks flash files, which can help pages load faster. The browser can also detect websites that are phishing and warn users of scams that might be in the pipeline however this feature isn’t as reliable than Google’s Scam Alert feature.
