avast Internet Security 6.0 provides comprehensive and worry-free security for individuals, home offices, and small businesses that do not have a need for central management.
Based on award-winning 5 series, version 6.0 introduces: a native 64-bit platform for Windows 7 and Windows Vista, enabling critical boot-time scans; an improved Behavior Shield, better integrated with the antivirus scanning engine; an Outlook antispam plug-in; optimized cleaning features, stability, and performance; and our new SafeZone, WebRep, and AutoSandbox (this in addition to our standard Sandbox).
Key Features of avast Internet Security 6.0
- ANTIVIRUS AND ANTI-SPYWARE ENGINE
Innovative scanning engine protects against viruses, spyware, and other malicious agents.
Scans your computer for infections before the OS can start to activate any viruses beneath it (now applies also to 64-bit versions of Windows 7 and Windows Vista).
Supports the 64-bit architecture platforms of Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
Prompts users to run suspicious applications in the virtual Sandbox environment.
Opens a new (clean) desktop so that other applications don’t see what’s happening – perfect for banking, secure ordering/shopping – and leaves no traces once it’s closed.
Provides website reliability and/or reputation ratings according to community-provided feedback.
Stops hackers, using heuristic and behavioral analysis and a white list of safe applications.
Comprehensive spam and phishing filter, which works as a plug-in to MS Outlook and a generic POP3/IMAP4 proxy for other email clients.
Stops ‘zero-day’ threats and unknown malware before virus definitions have been obtained.
Scans all visited web pages, downloaded files, and java scripts. Thanks to the intelligent stream scanning feature, the Web Shield doesn’t slow your web browsing.
Proactively finds malware undetectable with normal definitions and virus signatures.
- REAL-TIME ANTI-ROOTKIT PROTECTION
Prevents stealth malware (‘rootkits’) that, when loaded by the computer’s OS, are invisible to ordinary scanners.
Provides an extra layer of security for you to run your PC and its applications in a virtual environment – where any attacks are thus targeted (instead of your real PC).
Real-time scanning of opened/executed files.
Scans all incoming/outgoing email for malware (a special plug-in is used for MS Outlook).
Checks files downloaded via P2P programs and while using IM or “chat” programs.
Protects against network-based viruses with two main components: a URL blocker, to block malicious URLs, and a lightweight intrusion-detection system.
Detects malicious scripts hidden in web pages and prevents them from hijacking and potentially damaging your computer.
Provides the best, most up-to-date signature-based detection because the global avast! user community provides samples of new viruses.
Runs a scan directly from the command line.
- WAKE-UP/SCHEDULED SCANNING
Schedule scanning at night or whenever you don’t need to use your PC.
Reduces the number of required file scans up to 80% through a white list of safe applications. Files identified as safe are not rescanned unless they change.
Automatically detects full-screen applications and disables pop-ups and other notifications without compromising security.
Leaves a minimal “footprint” due to its efficient and effective technology.
- MULTI-THREADED SCANNING OPTIMIZATION
Allows the splitting of large files between cores, which accelerates the scanning process on new multi-core CPUs and makes avast! run even faster.
AUTOMATIC PROCESSING
Infected files are processed automatically, without requiring user instructions.
Uses dynamic translation (a method much faster than traditional emulation) for both generic unpacking and within the heuristics engine.
- SMART VIRUS DEFINITION UPDATES
Incremental updating minimizes the size of regular update files.
- FAST APPLICATION OF UPDATES
New format for the virus definition file means faster updates and reduces demand on CPU/memory, for uninterrupted computing.
avast Internet Security also adds crucial security layers that include antispam and a silent firewall.
