I’m happy with avast 5, and i’m very curious, how the new avast6 will look? will it be named avast 6? or avast 5.2? or the avast 2011/12 ? when you will release first beta / release candidate?
You don’t need to answer if you want to surprise us.
Sorry, but i’m very curious everytime… :o
You’ve only just been given 5.1 so be patient, version 6 will come when it’s ready.
i know but i want to ask them how they will name it and how it should look 
It will be named avast! 6.0 There is no info yet on how it will look like or if there will be any drastic changes.
However there are some unofficial info about certain features like new automatic sandboxing of suspicious programs and web page rating for free version. And there will be more for sure (maybe even some form of cloud technology)-
I can’t help thinking that something is very wrong… if the main question is “how it’s called and how it looks like”.
I know about sandbox in free - that’s fantastic
web page rating - it will be something like avg’s linkscanner? cool
thanks for your reply man!
No. It will be more like WOT. Just a bit better since it won’t be strictly relying on user info but also on the info feed from the avast! statistics centers.
nice!
they should increase costs of their products ;D
I would like to ask about avast! 6.0
Will the free version have Sandbox?
avast! has a very good (but sometimes too sensitive) URL blocker and Web Shield. Why need Site Rating? Will it “live” with URL blocker (network shield) and web shield?
I also expect the Secure Desktop to be available in Avast! 6.0 Pro and Internet Security. As Petr described it half a year ago :
it will allow you to execute e.g. web browsers in more secure mode than in 5.0, it’d be executed in the seperated desktop - with no icons, under our alternative shell (i.e. own explorer.exe), own taskbar, etc. This alternative desktop will be protected from keyloggers, screen captures and keeps your browsing activity isolated from other processes running on the normal desktop. This feature might be integrated into most common web-browsers as a plugin: e.g. if you go to www.abnamro.nl or www.dnb.nl sites (online banking), avast will open this page in the secured desktop automatically and protects your surfing from other applications.

Only vlk and tech can give this info.by the way 5.1 is still buggy here.
Most likely yes 
As Vlk explained :
Now, with Avast 6.0 (which is coming sooner than you may think), it's a different story. Avast 6.0 will feature the in-the-cloud heuristics based on the age/prevalence data (as suggested above by sded) as well as new stuff related to the use of our sandbox. But, instead of using the "default deny" paradigm that Comodo is trying to advertise so much, avast will work differently. It will rely on its heuristics engine to make decisions whether an executable file should run sandboxed or not. Let me explain this in a bit more detail. Currently, the outcome of the scan is pretty much binary - either the file is called "clean" (and is allowed to run), or it is flagged as "infected" (and appropriate actions are applied - and the file isn't allowed to run). This also applies to heuristics detections. Now in avast 6.0, the outcome could also be "potentially infected, use extreme caution" and this case, when talking about an on-exec scan, will (by default) be handled by sending the file into the sandbox. If the program is legitimate, it has a good chance of running OK inside the sandbox (and of course you, as a user, can always override the decision and run it normally). And if it's really malware, avast has just saved your butt.There are many other minor things that make up these changes (such as further emphasis on the Behavior Shield when making these heuristics decisions, i.e. taking into account full context info) but this is, at a glance, how it’s going to work. What may be of special interest, also, is that this is how it’s going to work even in the free version (which means that the core functionality of the sandbox will likely be moved to the free AV).

Igor has explained this very well in the Evangelists’ Corner Café :
Both Web Shield and Network Shield block [b]malware[/b] (or exploits, but basically some kind of bad data in the scanned stream). The reputation tool is a few levels higher... I mean, it can show you that the e-shop in question has a bad reputation and doesn't deliver what promissed, the site in question contains porn... etc. I wouldn't really compare those two, even though they certainly have some connection points...

Greetz, Red.
About avast! 6.0… hmmm
Something huge I think… a new GUI, Shields and other tools…
It will be a step to the top and will show that avast! is the ultimate free antivirus without doubt.
Now I can’t say no more since I don’t like to play Guess much. 
One last thing:

Vlk has the end responsibility about Avast! product development yes. But not all information comes from Vlk exclusively. And Tech is no Avast! employee, but a volunteer product translator and excellent forum helper
Greetz, Red.
Thanks Red
yes it will, but only with basic functions
And that is nr 3 ;D
Danny96, didn’t you see my post ???
