Avast! Home Edition 4.7.936

Avast! Home Edition 4.7.936 (Windows, Freeware, 12.7MB) [dl via Filehippo] is a full-featured antivirus package designed exclusively for home users, non-commercial users. Home Edition is free of charge, since in our opinion, it is possible to avoid global virus spreading by efficient prevention; however, many user are not able or do not want to pay for antivirus software.

Recent changes:

  • Standard Shield works on Vista 64bit again
  • fixed problems with (missing or non-functional) resident protection virus warning popup, occurring on some systems
  • fixed a problem with password-lock for resident protection settings
  • fixed very slow updating on Windows 95/98/ME
  • higher performance of the scanning engine (especially on new CPUs) and faster start of the avast! system service on OS boot
  • improved support for Windows Vista (added support for NTFS transactions (also known as TxF) etc.)
  • improved detection of full-screen applications
  • fixed a bug related to the demo license not being installed during silent installs
  • improved compatibility with Windows offline folders
  • more improvements in executable unpackers
  • minor fixes in the ZIP unpacker
  • fixed Runtime error R6034 messages when Mozilla Thunderbird version 3.0 is installed
  • suppressed double scans when the user selected a local disk scan plus a folder scan (with the folder residing on the local disk)
  • added Catalan language module
