Why, what would it bring that isn't available in the full program ?

You only have to browse the forums from when avast 8 was introduced to see the number of complaints about it being a Metro clone and that is only one page.

I rather suspect that metro apps don't have the same sort of permissions required for a full blown security applications, loading low level drivers, etc. But why build a metro app when you have the real thing.
