Great news! Congratulations on a great product and a great situation with Google. Keep up the good work!

Hi Vince,

But unfortunately this Google pack not available for south east asia especially for Indonesia rite?

Well, we’ll see whether Google will touch Indonesia market?

Anyway, just for your information that McAfee have engagement with Facebook, please link to : http://www.detikinet.com/read/2010/01/14/105858/1278171/323/facebook-bagi-bagi-software-anti-virus-gratis

@Yanto Chiang

Yes Mr Yanto,

I think it is not yet ready for Indonesia. But this is a good start for all of us.

congratulations with this extra distribution channel and publicity. It will be a good boost for Alwil.

Though i am missing the English language in the list, isn’t there the biggest group (since it can then touch the Indonesian market too for example), or is that the standard language that always comes with the package?

good news, everyone! lets see how it helps to spread the good word about avast!

Great news, Congratulations!

Japanese Google pack now include ‘Spyware Doctor with Anti-Virus’(or ‘Spyware Doctor Starter Edition’) ,in the past it included ‘Norton Security Scan’.
I hope Japanese Google pack also include avast!…. I’m now looking forward to upcoming avast!5.

Forgive my poor English.

Hi Non,

That’s way i already mentioned to Vince that for Asia Pacific or South East Asia don’t have this Google Pack cooperation yet.

Yanto Chiang

NICE! Now your deal with Google is working..
Congrats!

@Yanto Chiang
Thanks Yanto. The McAfee and Facebook is just a marketing campaign. It is a 6-month trial (very similar to the 3 month trials that come with new computers). I think it is safe to assume that McAfee paid Facebook quite a bit of money.

Hi Vince,

Sure,
As i posted at avast forum : http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53385.0

Then avast always give for Free to around the worlds rite?

Nothing to lose….not need to purchase paid version if doesn’t need for urgential transaction.

Too bad! Not for English users!

Congratulations!

tie-up with google in Google Pack.
it brings the number of users increases, surely because the product is pretty good.
it is glad for me, and this is very good news for your company too.
and, as one person for whom I also am using avast!, i am looking forward to avast! 5 japanese version.

Release date for Avast 5?

Well done on the google deal Definitely a good move for advertising.

Some more info for those interested avast! support article >> avast! and Google Pack

Vincent, is is possible to get a preview of the post before posting it?

@Kai

This has been asked a few times… http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=53403.0

I hope the audio notification (anti virus database) of that dudes voice is included in the new version,, scares the shit out of me every time ahahah..

Vincent Steckler :
Scott, I must have missed the comments about a preview. Tell me what you envision. Thanks

Hi Vincent,

I was asking if it is possible for me to preview the message I post (similar to the forums) just in case I missed something… I usually find it easier to proof read the message as a preview, and I also like to check the links work.

It would drive me crazy seeing a mistake I made…especially since we can’t edit…

If it can’t be done, no bother…not massively important compared to your work

@David

I think, the default is a woman’s voice now…(can’t be too sure, don’t use the beta)

-Scott-

Hi, I want to know about the script blocker and its purpose. Currently it is available only in avast 4.8 professional. Will it be available in free version of avast 5 and if not whether avast 5 free still protects against web based threats? Thanks

Is this version is a full one? Or a beta?

wen will new ver launch

@spg SCOTT: I very much prefer the female voice, xD

@Vincent Steckler
Well, I think Beta isn’t full, sorry finished, because it’s a Beta. So, I wanted to know, is this version (in the Google Pack) a Beta or a finished one?

Hi Vincent
When I go to the site http://pack.google.com/intl/en/pack_installer.html
Avast does not in options? Why? When will it appear?

@skokospa

The google pack containing avast! is only available in certain languages:

Google Pack with Avast Free Antivirus for any of these languages: French, German, Italian, Czech, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, and Polish.

What is the language you have chosen?

-Scott-

Vincent Steckler :
@skokospa
Hello Skokspa, You chose english and unfortunately Google is not offering it in english.

Duh…I missed the /en/…

Where’s that roll your eyes smiley from the forum

Hiyaaaaa!
Nice to hear that it is a great deal for us avast users to have more newbies using avast!

There isn’t really any need to post a photo here…

lol I just want to ;D

well done, i think it’s a great solution for antivirus

congratulation for your new product…
from somewhere in indonesia

Congratulation. It’s interesting it isn’t part of English Google pack, but anyway it’s great move.

I do not understand one thing. Why Google offers unstable version in their Google Pack?
I thought betas are for tests not for everyone to normal using.

Could you give us a definitive release date?

1. How I can download the virus update definition for this version of avast AV?
2. It’s trully no need register?
Bravo

@TheJoe
1.You mean to update to Verson 5? Check the website, you can download V5 from there.
