Avast! 7 free with Comodo firewall

You mean behaviour shield?? yes i know that...but i dont call it a bloat..it works on ask...and sandbox is still being worked upon...and filerep does work..i have got a few alerts from it when messing up on malc0de:shy:

Don't assume. I wasn't referring to the Behaviour Shield, Sandbox or FileRep. Those are key points for Avast, to (or try to) prevent unknown malware.. which all are a WIP.

McLovin, Trend Micro bloated?

It can get that way:

McLovin, Directpass is part of the suite or an additional service that is not included in the suite?

I know they offer that type of service.

And i dont agree with your preference..this was the same with V6...they all work better in v7...I have a rogue on here...if i launch it..it goes to the sandbox....the day earlier i remember avast sandboxed a new zeroaccess malware....Agree the sandbox analysis is poor...but it is yet being worked upon..give it some time..the rogue was also ripped by filerep


and the other day my Father downloaded a file which was in .doc format from the e-mail which was also sandboxed..and i guess when i uploaded it to VT...it was brand new trojan bublik...

Also the sandbox is based on heuristic analysis...if a file is flagged as suspicious it will be sandboxed...they are...they all do their job well...Not a excuse...

some weeks ago...i by mistakely launched a adware and that was also caught by the sandbox..

For me i have 3 to more possible events where avast Filerep and SB have saved my butt!! and if those features are a R.I.P as to what you say...then they shouldnt be saving my butt like it is happening

Remember: avast behaviour shield,file shield and filerep and SB are interconnected...even in absence of 1 of them...the others will not function...

These are just my experiences that I am sharing...I am not intending to change anybody's point of view...

Now it's part of the suite. When you buy the Internet Security and or the Max version you get a copy of the Direct Pass and the Online Guardian.
