Well, bob3160, may have some point there. You have to question this behavior of the avast emergency update and then ask yourself this question:
"Why would avast use a randomizer on it?". In the constant battle with malcreants and circumventors,
with the latter often getting the upper hand and in an everlasting battle it could well be a sheer necessity.
Your firewall does not have to stop some fingerprinting from avast!'s homebase.
Lately it is striking that a lot of long-time users and newbiesall alike started to question avast online behavior.
I think it is the NSA revelations syndrome that must have gotten a hold on these poor souls and produced these almost paranoidal attitudes.
This also toward the avast! av solution that you should trust a full 1000%. And you can.
Read what AVAST’s Chief Technology Officer, Ondřej Vlček declared here:
http://blog.avast.com/2014/01/07/avast-response-to-open-letter-from-bits-of-freedom/So it is all a question of trust, and why should you trust an av software solution that does not impact your firewall settings,
but also never answered the Open Letter from Bits of Freedom?
Do I have to bring more arguments to debunk your anxiety?
I do not have to toss and turn in my bed to-night as I know the people that will keep my computer secure
(thanks to Vlk, Milos & other avast team members).
And to-morrow will be "bright and shine" when I start to boot after a new emergency update! lands".
