In depth

A closer look at BGPKiller

BGPKiller is a simple to use utility which can monitor the background processes that are active on your system, then instantly terminate the specified ones. The software can detect the background processes initiated by Avira Free Antivirus and cause pop up ads on your desktop.

Avira ads and CPU usage

BGPKiller is designed to terminate certain system processes that are initiated by Avira Free Antivirus, namely ipmgui.exe and avnotify.exe. These processes cause a series of Avira ads to pop up on your screen and disrupt your work, since they open of top of other windows. Moreover, the pop up ads also cause an overload of the CPU, raising the usage up to 100% after an ad is displayed. This issue might affect the longevity of the processor.BGPKiller is designed to run along with Avira Free Antivirus, and keeps an icon in the system tray, in order for you to easily control it. This way, the software can easily monitor the processes that run on your computer and instantly detect the ones initiated by Avira.

Simple application with no interface

Due to the nature of the functions it performs, BGPKiller does not require an interface. You may view the icon in the system tray area and access its functions from the context menu. The software allows you to open the activity log at any time and view if the aforementioned processes were detected and terminated.You may reset the activity log with one mouse click, or pause the process monitoring and termination. If you select the latter option, BGPKiller can still run on the computer, only not close the Avira processes any longer.

Protect your computer and processor

By killing potentially harmful processes, BGPKiller can protect the longevity of the processor, as long as you keep using Avira Free Antivirus. The software can put an end to Avira pop up ads, protect the CPU and allow you to work without interruption. Moreover, it can perform a continuous scan of the background processes and automatically terminate the specified ones every time they are initiated.
