An interview about avast! 5 and its future
Softpedia recently asked me a few questions about avast and its future, which resulted in this article: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Softpedia-Exclusive-Interview-avast-5-140693.shtml
In case you have some additional questions about our technologies, or our strategy moving forward, I’ll try to answer these in the Comments section below.

MUY LINDO LOS PRODUCTOS DE ANTIVIRUS AVAST
Hey Avast! Yesterday i downloaded a toolbar made by conduit.com and i also went to conduit.com. other antivirus websites with a website check said that it downloads Malware Please Check the Site and if it does download malware than Have Avast Free edition detect it please. im scared cause i hope there isnt no virus on my labtop.
Hey Avast, why don’t you offer a home site license for a very reasonable price as some other AV vendors do. I think there is a lot of people like myself that have quite a few PCs at home – test cubes and such. I/we use the free Avast on most of them, but would pay a reasonable amount for a home site license if you offered one. Paying for multiple single licenses becomes too expensive quickly, so the free product is the only other choice.
I feel you would profit from this scenario, as many free users would become paying customers. Please consider…
Thanks for offering such a great product.
PS – what about developing a commercial product for 200+ ? The Avast AV client is *SO* much better than most of the AV competitors in that space, I think you’d do well.
Sorry, I posted here. Becourse, no one answer me on “support@avast.com”… I needs help… Thx..
Dear Sir:
Thanks to provide free Avast! for us.
I used 4.8 Avast! can not be updated….
Reason is registration code to be overdue….
Could you tell me how could I get new registration code to be continued….
Maybe you ask me why I didn’t change new version….
5.0 home version is not more powerful than 4.8 home
4.8 home had memory check, 5.0 home hadn’t….
Finally, I want to ask why your website No Traditional-Chinese language….
I remember you had before….
I know many user use Avast! in Taiwan…..
Anyway… thanks again….
Hello
In my computer began to open windows. These windows were saying phrases like …. Access violation at address in module “pocoyo.exe.” Network of address …….
Make a complete scan with Avast free, but found nothing.
So we did a full scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and found that pocoyo.exe is a banker trojan and quarantined. Why Avast found nothing in a full scan? Why the coat of behavior could not anticipate this trojan?.
It infected the computer here:
Registry Values Infected:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Run \ pocoyo (Trojan.Banker)
Infected files:
C: \ WINDOWS \ pocoyo.exe (Trojan.Banker)
If you do not know this malware I leave a link for information:

I hope you have understood the message, please excuse my English.
