Wonder if they will implement from their current products but on the meantime likely an on demand scanner for it.

Now you can all try Avira Protection Cloud without registration, I wasn't sure if I was allowed to post the changelog yesterday.

This was already posted everywhere in various forums.
Itself in the known computer magazine in Germany chip.de

I posted mine from an email update I received, not Wilders.

I know about chip.de, but I was saying I was unsure if I was allowed to public the changelog publicly.
avira happy about it but the one tool that the more load the better for it
It is only a Memory Scanner It Just Checks Files Running In the memory and Gives a rating safe / malware etc and it uploads unknown process to the cloud For Verification Dont know for sure'if it has removal capabilities or no'

Has or can anyone test it with malwares ?
Avira builds up a data bank
Only Cloud scanners protect no PC, however, they are a useful supplement to signatures and Heuristiken. However, Avira is absent up to now the suitable data bank in addition to submit files to an on-line comparison. With Avira Protection Cloud this data bank should be built up. In a short practise test the software leaves a mixed impression: She does not need many resources and works fast, however, she offers no settlement function. If a virus is discovered, one gets indicated which file it concerns. Is extinguished or, however, is not sent in quarantine them. Also badly: If the software can start nothing with a file, it is checked without inquiry to Avira highly loaded and there for viruses. On a test PC 78 files were concerned by it. Users have to intervene here no possibility and to prevent the Upload. Whether it creates Protection Cloud as an independent product on the market or as a module in existing Avira products is not known.
Before you all start asking for "a test against malware", "does it have malware removal capabilities", I strongly suggest you read their blog post regarding APC:

Quote:Outsmarting the malware of the future requires building a huge community-powered knowledge base containing malware data and clean applications.

So that's where Avira Protection Cloud enters.
