Well, maybe it doesn't have anything to do with Avira. However, Avira sometimes has a few little bugs on certain pc's so I wouldn't rule it out...
It's much, much better. :) Give it a try: http://www1.avira.com/en/evaluate/chip.php :)
As far as I know, the "system scan" alert displayed in the control center is not happy unless you start a scan from there. It's a bug.
I still see the links on this page as up. Which are you referring to?
I have some from certain programs (for business use) that are longer than 15. Luckily, I never had to exclude them. ;)
Re: Can the proactive module be so stupid? I haven't seen this first hand (never used KAV) but that is just plain freaky! I wonder if any other...
Unless they very recently changed the suite, I don't think it is. As for AVG pro, I think it's improving. If you look on the castlecops malware...
The updates can be made invisible. I also found it to be heavier than Avira's suite, though.

Great find. :) It's nice to see they are still wanting people to buy just the AV (versus the suite). :)
I understand - I just wanted to try it myself out of curiosity. Thank you for the reply and thank you for your opinion on the stealth matter.
I disabled my dns client service and everything seems normal. Or is that not the proper way to test it?
Does any other AV vendor have a pretty rigid schedule for releasing new builds like Avira does? With all the issues people have, it seems like...
Just tried the installing the web guard again and so far, it works very nicely.:)
If what I am reading on this thread is correct, the premium versions have there share of bugs for some people as well.
I think they would greatly benefit from a public beta version before each release since a number of people see bugs of some sort. However,...
It should be right there when you click the Firewall Tab. It's a horizontal slider. [ATTACH] As far as updates, there seems to be a bug in this...
If you ever want to give Avira a try again, the firewall "high" setting is visible if you click the "Firewall" tab at the top of the control...
Hi, I think if you set the firewall to "high" versus the default medium, that will stealth all ports. I can pass the GRC test completely on the...
Good to know it passed those two. :) Also, I'm curious, what is SC?
I have 2 copies of Avira, one PE Premium and one of the Suite. No problems with the PE Prem one and not much changed. It's always worked really,...
Re: AV Comparatives is Almost Due Quite so. I've used both over the years and only the pro version will detect adware, etc.
Re: AV Comparatives is Almost Due Shouldn't be any difference between Avast home (free) and the pro version. There is likely a good sized...
Re: AV Comparatives is Almost Due Very interesting... It's good to see AVG moving up and Avira still maintaining that nice score. Thanks for...
I think it will be out the 1st of September. I won't be switching AV's based on it. I'll just stick to what works for me. :)
