Hi all, im new to the avast forums (so if i made or make any "noob" mistakes please forgive me
) um i recently downloaded the latest avast 5 beta (beta2). The web shield and mail shield don't appear to be working correctly, or at all. I have set the web shield to automatically abort connection, but when i download the Eicar test file (yes i am downloading the files using the HTTP format) it doesn't abort the connection, instead it comes up with a box saying something about a temporary file being infected and movies it to quarantine, but the download box for the eicar file still pops up aswell..so i think to myself "why didnt it abort my connection??" please help me with this
Now about the Mail shield, how do i know if it is scanning my email? does a icon pop up in the system tray when it is scanning them just like in 4.8? all help is appreciated greatly
