1. Mostly yes
2. Yes
3. Absolutely great, don't ever think of removing it, please
4. Settings are fine
5. No issues here
6. I dislike most of it. I don't like the big, round, picture. I don't like that only LAST examined item is listed, and abbreviated at that. Nothing short of a screen with tabs showing full name of what was scanned, say, for a day or a week will do. That's where Avira shines over Avast - their reports, while the columns are narrow, can be read and understood. A one liner report or a graph of frequencies is to me useless. Can't even copy what's reported to notepad. Shield log is always empty (I suspect it'll show if infections detected).
7. Is fine as is, works ok, does the job of updating. I haven't yet updated to the lattest which, I gather, eliminates the double voice message.
8. "Click to see your complete security reports for the last 30 days" link - useless to me unless somebody can tell me what I gain by so clicking. Can't think of any more. Avast shines in my book and keeps getting better and is still amazingly small footprint in ProcessExplorer.
