I do a lot of downloads. If Avast claim to scan any files while I download, then is it correct to assume that after when all the downloads are completed (ex. 8 rar files before unzipping), I don't need to scan them again using Avast ?

Thanks for your advice!

not 100% sure...but see settings for webshield..... but they will be scanned when unzipped or when opening the folder after unzipping
