perfect job! Thx for update!

But big white button on the pop-up update notification - looks like alien! Can you do it in style "mark as a false alarm" in the notifications of threats?

Script shield slows web page loading in IE9. I uninstalled the script shield and all is well again.
Absolutly no problem with slow page loading in IE9 on my Windows 7 system.  :)

Running fine on both of my systems.  ;D

It really depends on the actual page. Some pages are very JavaScript-intensive, and there may indeed be some slowdown there...

Thanks

- New Script Shield - now scanning deeper and supporting more host processes
- Web Shield now scanning all processes by default
may i know what 's the meaning ? webshield scans every processes try to use internet? and if i want to exlude a process for compatibility reason ?

Questions really should be in a new topic, hopefully we can kill this in this post otherwise it will have to be in a new topic.

It means 'all' HTTP traffic, so other applications, not necessarily browsers which can also make http connections.

No you can't specify which applications or exclude applications, it is either all or nothing with the new feature. You can check the 'Scan traffic from well-known browser processes only' option and that effectively brings the web shield back to scanning as it did before.

i did notice under w7 a higher cosuming of cpu surfing with firefox with web shield ON
<snip>

Essentially surfing with firefox wouldn't change as the web shield isn't scanning anything more in firefox than it was before. But it is hard to say as browsing can be different from day to day and I really don't know how you can attribute the increase in CPU to the web shield as its resource use comes under the avastSvc.exe process. However, the Script Shield may now be scanning some web page content when browsing with firefox now, as mentioned above.

Any response or further questions should be in a new topic.

- Better tracking of file sources
what is it? the persistent cache?
Autosandbox related, maybe.
I had found a mismatch of file sources when autosandbox window appeared.

Isn't this caused by Script Shield? As DavidR says there is no changes in Web Shield which affects Firefox.

We complained about that ugly white button but they disregarded our opinion unfortunately.
I just disabled that ugly popup completely because of it.

OK its ugly, so what, it is cosmetic, heaven forbid that you get so many virus alerts that this is actually an issue, rather than your browsing habits.

As RejZoR has done disable the update notification pop-up (you still get the audio notification). Or dial the pop-up display duration down to a few seconds in the avastUI, Settings, Popups, rather than the default and you only get two of those per day on average.
