AVG Rescue CD is distributed as a bootable CD intended for OS recovery in such an event where the system cannot be loaded in the regular way - for example due to a substantial virus infection.

The AVG Rescue CD is essentially a portable version of AVG Anti-Virus supplied through Linux distribution. It can be used in the form of a bootable CD or bootable USB flash drive to recover your computer when the system cannot be loaded normally, such as after an extensive or deep-rooted virus infection.
