Hi Pondus,
Thank you, Pondus, keep these reports coming to add to and to check avast detection. You prove that one has to be selective as what to report to virus AT avast dot com, so that the detections fit their categories.
This thread proves that the common user should have additional non-residential protection next to his avast residential av-solution WITH the shields enabled, like MBAM and SAS on demand and keep these fully updated and perform a quick scan with them now and again.. Personally I combine that with some third-party in-browser protection like DrWeb's online scanner and BitDefender TrafficLight and QuickScan to further close the vulnerability gap/vulnerability window. But scanning feedback is very important. If DrWeb's online pre-scanner misses detections I report back (that is why Dim@rik came to join our forums) , and also when Zscaler Zulu does not have detection I will give feedback of what has been found with other scanners.
On a side note. I tried Quttera WIS (beta) at htxp://www.quttera.com/ against all sorts of verified malcious URLs and all the time the scan comes up as clean. Is this scanner a scam for their services or just worthless?
