I think with max settings avast will definitely do better. I found with the default settings, it is not comparable to other paid products
PUP dectection is a bit weak although it is enabled

If you have time please max out the settings (heuristics, HIPS, PUPs and "Warn when downloading files with poor reputation")

thank you for the test
good as always :)
