Technology:
Core Technologies |
Antivirus and anti-spyware engineInnovative scanning engine protects against viruses, spyware, and other malicious agents. Real-time anti-rootkit protectionPrevents stealth malware (‘rootkits’) that, when loaded by the computer’s OS, are invisible to ordinary scanners. Silent FirewallStops hackers, using heuristic and behavioral analysis and a white list of safe applications. AntispamComprehensive spam and phishing filter, which works as a plug-in to MS Outlook and a generic POP3/IMAP4 proxy for other email clients. avast! WebRepProvides website reliability and reputation ratings according to community-provided feedback. avast! CommunityIQOur technology uses a global network of sensors to provide us with data taken (anonymously) from the actual web-browsing experiences of an opt-in group of avast! users. This info is then used to protect all avast! users with the most up-to-date information on viruses and infected websites. Because of avast! CommunityIQ, avast! has discovered 253,437 infected websites and protected 134,410,911 people from visiting them in the last 30 days. |

Behavior ShieldStops ‘zero-day’ threats and unknown malware before virus definitions have been obtained. |
Others |
64-bit supportSupports the 64-bit architecture platforms of Windows 7 and Windows Vista. Heuristics engineProactively finds malware undetectable with normal definitions and virus signatures. Code emulatorUses dynamic translation (a method much faster than traditional emulation) for both generic unpacking and within the heuristics engine. Automatic processingInfected files are processed automatically, without requiring user instructions. Smart virus definition updatesIncremental updating minimizes the size of regular update files. Fast application of updatesNew format for the virus definition file means faster updates and reduces demand on CPU/memory, for uninterrupted computing.
