After enabling PUP "on" in all shields avast! blocks it while Downloading through web shield ..
But fails to clear the Downloaded File .. says it has no threat ..

This is the file : xoomer.virgilio.it/g_leone4/burp.exe

Here when pup is enabled then its detected.
Mostly I have seen if the detection is a pup then its mentioned with the detection like win32Trojan(PUP)but this detection doesn't shows PUP with the detection name as usually Avast shows.
Thanx

Besides the File System Shield PUP, have you tried setting higher sensitivity and enabling PUP also in the "scan from windows explorer" manual scan?
Please report back.

Here select folder to scan configured to detect PUP & sensitivity set to high detects it.

quote VirusTotal
*VirusTotal AV engines are commandline versions, so depending on the product, they will not behave exactly the same as the desktop versions: for instance, desktop solutions may use techniques based on behavioral analysis and count with personal firewalls that may decrease entry points and mitigate propagation, etc.
*In VirusTotal desktop-oriented solutions coexist with perimeter-oriented solutions; heuristics in this latter group may be more aggressive and paranoid, since the impact of false positives is less visible in the perimeter. It is simply not fair to compare both groups.

I understand how this avast! works ... :(

Go to avast main GUI -> settings -> basic -> "show special scans in avast user interface". Then review again the scan types available.

On the main window of AvastUI, at the top is Settings. Click on that, and on the Basic Settings is "Show special scans in the avast! user interface". Checkmark it and then it will appear.

We enable PUP on everything!
And set Web Shiels sensitivity to HIGH!
