A) Website Safety Advisor
This isn't from Avira but from CallingID - a company from Israel that isn't even compliant with EU Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC). See http://www.callingid.com/privacy.aspx. Since customer aren't informed that their privacy isn't handeld in accordance with European laws Avira at least should warn their users. I don't see this as a saftey feature, but a risk! It'll be interessting to learn what Germanys State Commissioner for Data Protection thinks about this....
B) Browser Tracking Blocker
This is also not from Avira but from Abine. When installed the DoNotTrack-Service starts an executable that is excluded within the Avira firewall. It is communicating over the internet all the time. I couldn't find any information within their privacy policy what data is transfered. So again perhaps more risk than saftey...
C) Enhanced Child Protection
Where are the advantages compared to the previous version? I don't see any change...
D) Protection Cloud
By default this is used once a week (within Quick Scan according to the online help). So in the best case it tells me that I got infected instead of protecting me against getting infected. Why is there no check on execute?
E) Security for Android
Where is the point to offer this within the GUI of a Windows product -all the time. Maybe they should offer a link to http://www.amazon.com/Sex-Teens-Unce...rds=safety+sex also? - it is said to be related to saftey also...
F) Social Network Protection
No time to check this so far - I've no FB account so far....
G) Experts Market
Looks somehow like an early alpha. Just try to register as an expert or try to get help. Didn't they advertise something different (http://securitywatch.pcmag.com/none/...-you-get-help).
No 64Bit ProActiv, no support for Windows 8, no real new (useful) features that are from Avira and finished. My conclusion: marketing
