hmmm so im asking this question.... how effective is avast's behaviour shield?
-
we will see when avast 7 is released ;)
-
So far i haven't seen it detect anything at all. We'll see how it is with v7...
-
The Behavior Shield works fine for me.
-
ive seen it detecting suspicious activity before the alert :)so when is avast v7 beta coming out? cant wait to download and test it
-
It is likely to be released to beta around the end of this month beginning of next month.
-
so when is avast v7 beta coming out? cant wait to download and test it
Scheduled for this month.
-
awesome!!!! bye bye avast 6.0 HELOLOOO avast 7 beta (which idk when its final xD)
-
btw the behaviour shield only works if you set on ask
-
When on auto it displays red line but it doesn't actually block anything. It only actually blocks stuff if you set it to Ask.
-
BehShield> Expert Settings has four options 1) Auto Decide 2) Allow 3) Block 4) Ask
And, yes it works. :)

then why they haven't fix it
btw when i test the new version of avast that behavior shield better be working by the time the beta comes out because everything will be set on default if the beta misses a Rootkit,Ransom Trojan,leave the vm a mess or the windows vm wont boot i will not recommend avast. everyone got it
think of this as hw for the behavior shield

Love your tone as usual, break the door down, come in, make demands, then storm out.
Troll on, young one.
With all the negative you post here about Avast!, I would be surprised if you ever recommended it to anyone to begin with.

That's just it, he doesn't use avast, but GData which has avast as one of its two AV engines (so doesn't have the same settings available in the GData interface) and that is what he is permanently pissed about.

i will not recommend avast. everyone got it
@nsm0220,
What makes you think any one in here or any where else really cares what you recommend ???

Seriously, this is totally OT, and the last time I am going to respond to you, ever, unless you use Avast! and have a problem you need help with.
I was raised by a disabled person....and I understand autism....I know very well the difficulties you face.
I also know very well disabled people have a habit of getting headstrong about pushing their barriers.
If you came here for help with Avast!, I would totally make concessions for you, try to fix your problem. I might even be nice about it. You deserve no less.
But that is not what you do. You do not even use Avast!, and you come here repeatedly with nothing but negative to say about Avast!, with little or nothing to back it up. You come across as very rude, pushy, and demanding, and people are going to respond to that negatively. This starts a battle of words and opinions. Not the best battleground for someone with autism.
To give you a metaphor, you are the equivalent of a paraplegic trying to compete in the Olympics.....it just does not work, that is why they have the Special Olympics.
I understand autism in no way limits your intelligence, just your ability to learn and communicate. And as a disabled person, you are free to push your barriers....but there are some things that are always going to be limited in.
I'm sorry if I offended you, but as I said, when you push your barriers, things don't get easier, they get harder, you have to learn to expect this......and crying "I'm disabled" after you start something is too late, nor does it give you a free license to do as you please.

+1 Well put Gargamel360 :)

expert you got some issues with that i do use avast thought gdata thought its signatures and its still in my vm i haven't get rid of it because the vm program is down
-
if u r not satisfied with avast den think again u can get comodo firewall or private firewall and threatfire to run alongside it... avast 7 is the future of avast :D im sorry for using short cuts in my posts...
-
Confused ??? The previous two posts make no sense ???
-
Lol,you guys.Bob?Gargamel?How you dare talking to nsm0220,he is the smartest person here,he can "kill malware and rip them to pieces",he can outsmart all of us.How you dare talking to him?
Bob,Gargamel?I do not recognize you..... ;D.Get serious,please 8) .

So Voodoo really works? Are you from Haiti per chance?
Seriously, it would help if a technical explaination of how behavior shield works could be given.
If it only works when set to Ask mode, how is that any better than the run of mill HIPS on the market? Is the average PC user capable of responding correctly to the Ask alerts with the information provided?
For example, does it auto sandbox the process with limited rights, send it to Avast cloud scanners for detailed analysis and if OK, auto releases it from the sandbox all invisible to the user? Comodo's Defense+ with Sandboxing enabled does. This is what "auto" mode means to me.
-
Looks like Avast 7 will get it right:
avast 7 is really going to have some amazing features and looks like they are having.... advanced heuristics scanning and analysis done in the sandbox when it detects suspicious or unknown files.... avast 7 also comes with cloud protection and an improved behaviour shield cant wait to test the final and beta version
However, adavnced sandboxing features will only be available in the paid versions :(
-

No sense crying about it... ;D
If those features are something that you can't live without, simply purchase the paid
version of your choice. :)
-

Maybe you should learn how to use Spell Check and also that IE9 is really good on WIN 7 x64 SP1 Home Premium.

Come on, maybe he just didn't notice the typo. However, I would like to know why he uses IE8 on Win7 when 9 is so much better in every way.

+1 on both accounts

Must be a slow day when your complaining about my spelling :P
I will be converting to IE9 soon. Been waiting for it to "mature."
-
thats a really long big leap for avast paid versions... at least the free will have the advanced heuristics but no testing in the sandbox :D and at least the free version should have cloud protection and improved behaviour shield :D i should purchase the internet security version asap xD

@All,
(Don't know if that is ok to preface like that, but started following from OP on, lost a couple of days, just caught up just now) If I shouldn't do that, let me know.
Notice that nsm0220 seems to have left everyone alone, at least for now.
I am disabled (won't say for the moment how) and can understand how nsm0220 might feel angry >:( >:( >:(
even when there may be no provocation -- being disabled is hard simply because another might not even see it, much less understand it. This may be because a person most likely doesn't have that disability or know someone close to them who does.
Learning to accept limitations is hard too.
It really doesn't matter what the disability is, the result can be a lashing out without focus or direction. The more severe the disabilty, the tendency is, the greater the degree. This is bad when this happens. Of course, the maturity achieved in life so far has much to do with how we treat others as well.
Time can moderate all things.
Bob3160 is right:
It's nice to be Important
It's more important to be Nice
So I am going to go with the latter, ok?
(Back on topic)
Thanks for the explanations about what Avast! Behavior Shield is, and what it does. Settings here have been changed to Ask, so...
Can't wait for version 7!

hey does anyone know how to get hitman pro 3.6 for 100% free? i see many people in the avast forum using hitman pro... so i was wondering how they got it for free without paying? ???
-
I wouldn't have it even for free, essexboy warns that it can delete important files.
I tried it some time ago and all it found were false positives, which despite them being reported still existed a couple of weeks later, history.
