I am using Internet Download Manager to handle my downloads and I have put Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashQuick.exe in the virus configuration screen (see screenshot). After doing this, I went to download the eicar zip file but no virus was detected until I tried to open it. It appears therefore that Avast does not normally scan downloaded zip files. Am I right and can the option be changed? Also, is there an option to either show the results of a downloaded files scan (e.g., Norton uses the option \noresults) or not?
