Avast UI opened after the update-doing nothing.Automatically ???Pls fix it.

+ Fixed issue with HIPS sensitivity set to highest-seem ok to me. :)

Note:Although CyberCapture is not mature enough and failed to protect my pc from unknown malwares/VBS/JS from web. :(
This is V.T of this Nemucod-https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/e1a5b14dbf12a189ab8ed968113c6d85b8522f9eb5981c21a3a369daf602eeb7/analysis/1466132187/ (https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/e1a5b14dbf12a189ab8ed968113c6d85b8522f9eb5981c21a3a369daf602eeb7/analysis/1466132187/)

btw i am send this to Viruslab via Viruschest.After CyberCapture failed to block it,not even executed in autosandbox. :(

Issue:Secure DNS can't run on this network-What does it mean? I have not install this.

Everytime threats blocked by avast! and then boot time scan dialog box appear from nowhere.This is useful but middle of work annoying.

Additional info- Avast SafeZone Browser-Loading is slow in low level pc(2GB RAM).Not automatically convert to banking mode when it comes to Shopping sites.e.g(Amazon,ebay).

Oh cmon, get your stupid Security Center detection fixed. Installed this beta clean and it's again not detected with Windows Defender running with avast. It just asked me to update WD definitions. Ugh!?

For me in its previous state it was pretty useless, most the information (or lack of it) wasn't detailed enough to be of much use. It needs a bloody good rethink before it is brought back.

The average user is only interested in one thing:
Does avast protect me against this infection.
Where it comes from, how it works and how active it is in a particular reason is only of interest
to a relatively small part of the Avast user base. :)

Additional info- Avast SafeZone Browser-Loading is slow in low level pc(2GB RAM).Not automatically convert to banking mode when it comes to Shopping sites.e.g(Amazon,ebay).


Do you mean start-up loading or loading of websites?

Shopping sites have not been added into our DB yet. This is not a bug. Btw. currently the auto switch is not default behavior for any website.

Question for beta testers: Is loading of your favorite websites fast enough in the Safezone browser? If not, compare it with other browser if there is any difference. Thanks

Start-up? You definitely do not feel any improvement in comparison with the previous version? I can give you a clue. In previous version there was one more browser started on the background. In current version, no background browser = it should be faster.

I think the start-up speed is affected by loading of previously opened tabs (big RAM consumption) but also extensions. Normal browsers does not have extensions by default. SafeZone has currently 8 extensions. I think there is not much space to make it even faster, but we will try ;) btw. you can disable some extensions if you do not need them - for example Passwords, SafePrice or Video Downloader.

I highly doubt that. If that were the case, there would be no reason to ask to make it the default browser. :)
