VERSION: 2016.11.2.2261
« on: April 06, 2016, 07:03:48 PM »
Hi all,

I am happy to announce new version AVAST 2016 (build number 2016.11.2.2261).
This update brings originally premium feature - SafeZone browser also to all free users.

What's new:

+ SafeZone browser is now included also in free version

+ Avast program updates are now automatic and silent by default - can be changed via Settings->Update

+ Faster computer startup

+ Fixed issues with Firewall on Windows 7

+ Fixed postpone function on restart dialog

+ Fixed starting Pay mode in SafeZone browser

+ Better notification about email signatures

How to install:

1. Update from existing Avast version via Settings -> Update -> Update program

2. Or you can download and install from here:

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_pro_antivirus_setup.exe

http://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_internet_security_setup.exe

We hope you enjoy the new version!

And the installer itself is 11.2.2279.0 for god known what reason...  ???

for me all the driver files are 2279, also avastUI.exe is and avastSvc.exe is

I think the final version is then 2279 ?

I hope Secure VM now works properly on Win10 64bit. Would be nice if there was an easy way within settings interface to perform a test instead of fiddling with commandline tools for it.

A UI Real Time Statistics problem from the beta build has been carried over to 11.2.2260.

On displaying the Statistics > Real Time Data - The stats count is present, but it is barely there long enough to do a screen capture before the count/s return to zero.

As you can see I'm connected via a Private Network:

Why does Avast want me to turn on SecureLine ???
Why is it unsafe for me to decide not to choose Auto Update ???
I've opted to be notified.
