[Wishlist] For avast! 8 - Suggestions and discussion

[antrox]

desired changes for 8.0 closed beta
- Increase the visual zoning main menu (interface is very whitish!)
- Maintenance button need return to the vertical menu on the left
- Community, market and other crap need to separate away from the basic functions of anti-virus (because of their interface is overloaded)

The icon labels (specially the Remote Assistance) cannot be read due to the size of the picture.

No problem reading anything on the UI:

Bob, in English of course... There are more 40 languages...

added features Update Rollback
added features Parental Control
added features Anti-Theft
added features safe banking

No. 4 is called "Safezone" and is part of AIS.   
Nos. 1,2 and 3 could result in bloatware.

Maybe they need to find an acceptable abbreviation.

I hope the update from 7 to 8 go better. When version 7 was released I could not use avast update and I had 4/5 computers delete everything and reinstall. this was not so good!!!

Add Memory Processes and Memory Modules and Registry Keys and Registry Values and Registry Data and Folders and Files in Full System Scan

Considering that avast 8 has entered a closed beta phase, this topic is pretty moot, if it isn't already included in avast 8 then it is unlikely to get included in the first release regular of avast 8.

Not to mention many of the things that you ask for are already included in the current avast 7 version, Memory Processes and Memory Modules. Registry is only checked when a detection is made in the regular scan (looking for associated registry entry).

I have no idea what you mean by "Registry Data and Folders and Files" the registry is in itself a number of files (Hives), so it doesn't have files and folders contained within it only references to files and folders outside of it.

I hope that the Web Shield protection log copy suspicious or virus file path or URL, convenient to join the exclusion list; ask the operator can be added to the trust list or ignore or more choices, false positives can also upload button convenient to exclude false positives .

I hope that the Web Shield protection log copy suspicious or virus file path or URL .

Do you mean a copy&paste feature in the interface?

How about making "progress bar" works in custom ROOT-KITS SCAN? It is NOT WORKING for many, many, many pass releases!

Tech said:firewall part: cleaning obsolete app rules.
This is very important to know what programs you have currently installed with an internet connection .I hope that this and other ideas are taken into account by technical support
