    Hello.
    I was scanning my PC with Avira while at the same time i was using IE - Internet-Explorer.
    Is it bad or will Avira stil find and delete viruses& other threats while i surf on IEver7 ?

    Its ok, I think avira will still detect all viruses but it maybe won't clean the ones that they are on your current IE7 cache, but this is unlike as it may detect them before entering in your cache especially if you use web-shield

    Its fine don't worry, while scanning Avira is still protecting real time. If you have webshield installed Avira should detect any viruses and terminate the connection before you download to disc. Re any potential security risks already in cache, just clear the cache - should be plain sailing from then on:)
