3 questions...
« on: January 25, 2005, 09:07:22 PM »
Hi,

In avast! Home Edition, all the Providers, except the "Network Shield", scans with the settings of the "Standard Shield"?

Using the High Sensitivity in "Standard Shield" will make a notable slow down performance in some systems, only in the old systems, only in some OS,...?

Using all or some Providers will make a notable slow down performance in some systems, only in the old systems, only in some OS,...?

Thanks

Não entendi a pergunta, o Standart Shield escaneia tudo que você acessa, e os outros são proteções especificas para arquivos que você baixou em Kazaa/Msn....(neste caso os arquivos entraram, mas você não os acessou, assim não sendo escaneados pelo standart até que você os abra.)

Não, aumenta a proteção mas a diferença no peso não é muito notável.

Olha, quanto mais provedores, mais pesado, mas não muito. Como você disse ter todos menos o network, o Network acredito que não cause diferença no desempenho, porque ele não escaneia, e sim detecta possíveis invasões de worms numa rede...


Abraços

My question is, for example if the "Instant Messaging" will scan all the files that I transfer through my IM if I have the High Sensitivity in "Standard Shield"? And the "Internet Mail" will scan all the files too?

I don't know if on old computer this will not make a notable slow down...
I want to listen some experiences...

I think that I already see in this forum that the "P2P Shield" slow down the performance because of some P2P programs...

Standart Shield in Hight Mode not scan files trsuted in MSN Messenger.Its necessary IM Provider or configure msn 6.2 or 7.0 to use "ashquick" to scan.
