Hello.

I Install avast Mobile Security, but I want to know if the Real-Time or Web Shield scans the files and web sites of the Browser and other apps with access to download things of the web?

Another question, I activate the Web Shield but it displays a message, i don't remember exactly the message but its some thing like this "Protect for dangerous websites, web shield integrate to the default browser of android".

It refers to the app called Browser? or any Browser like Opera and Maxthon?

Thank you

Hello,

the webshield currently only checks for sites you open if you you use the stock browser. We are currently trying to include other browsers into our webshield systems. Once it's done the user will need to install a browser plugin we provide to surf safely.
