Licensing-wise, this product will be available in 1-user and 3-user packs for the home.Īvast! Internet Security. And as with the Free Antivirus, current users of Avast! Professional Edition will be offered a free upgrade to this product. And for advanced users, we also offer this sandbox in a 64-bit environment which we think is unique. We think this is an exciting new feature and only one or two other products on the market offer this capability. This allows you to run your browser (or any other application) inside the sandbox so that if you are browsing to dangerous websites (perhaps purposefully) or executing suspect programs, any damage will be limited within the sandbox and will not affect your computer. Most importantly, it adds a sandbox (or virtualization). It is similar to the Free Antivirus but adds a number of new features. This is the new name of Avast! Professional Edition. And of course, any current user of Avast! Home Edition will be offered a free upgrade to this new product.Īvast! Pro Antivirus. It also has a gamer/silent mode so that when you are running games, movies, or other full screen applications, the AV program will leave you alone and not interrupt your game or movie. And I know of many paid programs that do not have this amount of protection. I doubt there are any other free programs with this amount of protection in the free product. For protection, it has signatures, heuristics, behavior detection, infected web site detection, malicious website detection, and detection of potentially unwanted programs.
It has a completely new user interface (good bye car radio interface) along with a lot of new features. This is the new name of Avast! Home Edition. Here is what we will now have:Īvast! Free Antivirus.
And we have actually increased the capabilities of the free product. We have loaded all three new products with lots of features. If you have not yet tried one of these products, I encourage you to do so and think you will be very impressed. Additionally the beta of the new Free AntiVirus () has now been out for a couple of months and has about 300,000 users. On Saturday finished the last major milestone before the general release when we released the public beta of the Version 5 Internet Security ( ). We will announce the specific date shortly before the actual release. We can now give the answer-after the holidays and very early in 2010. I know that many of our users have been asking this question for quite a while.
