    Thanks for replying.

    I think the bold part explains exactly my situation.

    I have noticed same behavior when I open My Documents folder and there is a suspicious exe file. There is an automatic detection although the file has not run. I haven't even thought that the cause is the OS trying to display an icon from the binary.

    hi mantra. Try to be more specific. What do you want to exclude and from what, i.e. guard, scanner etc.

    actions

    does avira free guard the possibility to setup the actions in real time scan ?

    for example block or clean if fails ->quarantine

    i don't talk about on request scan , but realtime engine

    thanks

    In Avira Free, automatic actions on detection are only available in on-demand scan. The guard component requires user interaction.

    According to a study (sorry I've lost the link to it) colours seem to have a significant impact on human psychology, and the results were that the colour "red" has statistically more chances to be the colour of winning endeavours compared to other colours.

    I suppose that Avira's top performance in most tests can only confirm this statistical result! (tongue in cheek - I don't like yellow).

    Good one Noob! This way it won't hurt anybody's feelings. Interestingly enough GDATA seems to fit into this colour theory, and they are always doing very well in terms of on demand scans.

    If you have a folder with sound files you should be able to do a search thru Avira for that folder and pick the sound of your choice. I use a French Police siren myself (the 2 tone siren)...:eek: :D

    I run Avira Premium. In the GUI I went to the sounds area and clicked the search button to go to my sounds folder, chose what I wanted and clicked apply to save it.
