I hope you will fix the issues with nested virtualization soon :)

I would like to get VmWare back on here.

Another question: Whats up with the HIPS Improvements?

I hope you have some security related updates for Avast 2017 Work in progress, the last real significant update here was Evo-Gen and maybe NG if it would be working as intended.

Where are the "offline" installers?
Some of us prefer having the full/offline installers.

in 2253, the postpone dialog after update seems to be completely broken,
it keeps repeating popup each 10-20 minutes no matter what higher value is selected

Updated over 2016.11.1.2253 Premier.
After updating, I got a welcome window but I couldn't close it; "Close" button does not work, there was no "X" button.
And, the welcome window appears again after reboot. Third reboot and the window is finally gone. :P

Is there any way to have Secure VM running in "extended" version inside memory if you have tons of RAM?

To my knowledge, Secure VM needs to boot up so to speak when DeepScreen has to scan something with it, but how about keeping more of it in the memory for faster operation?

Maybe even as an optional setting. I have 32GB of RAM, I think I could spare a gigabyte or two for faster DeepScreen Secure VM operation.

Can anyone confirm whether or not this build includes a fix for the missing firewall statistics bug?

well I know it's too much to ask to control the size, but e.g. option to "utilize additional several GB of memory to speedup Secure VM/Deep Screen etc."
