Yes, I made a valid point. It was to DavidR who out of nowhere came and said that I already made up my mind about it. I didn't even quote him.
I made a post, Avast employees saw that some users are rightfully hating the change in the Firewall, and it's upto Avast to decide whether they'll make any change or not. That's it. No one has to beat a dead horse.

With everything in this topic, you should have enough information to make up your mind, use the avast firewall or don't.

But flogging this poor horse to death isn't going to change things, repeating it multiple times won't change things.

As you now say it is up to Avast to make any change they feel necessary, constantly repeating the same things won't change that.

Avast has also seen your many posts and Avast alone is the one that will decide if the suggestions warrant any changes or not.
Continuing to post the same things over and over is like watching the same video over and over
hoping for a different ending.(it isn't going to happen)
You've made your point.

As a Designer, this new UI SUCKS a lot...

It may make things clean, but is a pain in the ass find stuff and change it... information is too spread out in many windows with no intuitive direction to use it...

I hate it so much, i will cancel my subscription...

Amazing considering that the use of the firewall isn't really required to use the Antivirus product.
Your computer, your choice.

Agreed... I'm absolutely HATING this new Firewall layout and it's now caused me enough of a headache I'm ready to ditch avast all together. It was FINE as it was.
