Please post the detection pages on virustotal for those keygens. Another way of me saying "pictures or it did not happen"
Why? I know about their status - but Avast did not recognize them…
Really knowing what I'm saying, keygens are clean but may get "repacked"
Well, an other scnaner reacted on that (left over) repacked file.
Oh, by the way, send those files to Avast and explain to them what happened. Pposting topics with inflammatory titles might get them read but not taken seriously. Seriously...
I declare my request as a well thougt about one since… but see about laymen below.
And how to find out if a shiled works when not testing it?
Why do you use keygen. There are many 'free'ware you can choose.
See lines above; popular and well known to hold an kind of poison.
So most AVs think keygen as MALWARE (malware to software company).
By same intention, I hoped Avast warns me.
They could be deleted by two reasons: […]
Indeed. I stumbled over both possibilities that day.
avast! isn’t useless.
Aha? It left me standing in a self called rain…
Buttons are just so much more than buttons these days.
Not sure what you’re thinking about, but I did not press a wrong or manipulated button.
But do you know any program which has 0 FPs and 0 Missed samples? Sure no!
ACK. But I intend to say, those KeyGens (more: the malware within) were not the very newest ones.
I try to secure my life as much as I can. 
I use 2 On-Demand Scanner: MBAM, Hitman Pro - I’ve set MBAM to scan my computer every night after update when I’m away from that
No comment; if a malware overwhelmed Avast’s shield and started to work, all that is too late.
I use web based scanners: Virus-Total via VirusTotal Uploader - to scan new files
So you do not trast Avast? See below, laymen.
I’ve disabled autorun feature of removable drive as system-wide
As I did too, beginning with W95.
I use windows HOSTS to block bad domains and use my AV feature to lock it to prevent Hijack
Do you know all of them?
I use only safe and trusted programs
Yepp. And I picekd those malware by intettion to get some.
I use Good browser with good extensions
Even if I overrun mine

Really knowing what I’m doing
Oh, yes, indeed. Tnink like a burglar to prevent them.

How a layman…
The point is - I am none. But other were and my try to use thos “offers” and feel well when a shield does not react even an additional scan of the download brings up no results.
So you don’t know what you are doing.
What a pity. I would call it a live- test of a shield.

Of course the last one (non Beta).
And on the other system? Different version, different vps, different settings?
As actual as the used and daily updates version was/is.
You talk a lot but not saying anything usefull.
OK, I tell you, even not very directly, a download of malware and a check of it brought up no alert by Avast. So is Avast hepless against those threats?
And using keygens? Makes me wonder if you are using a legal version avast!
That’s massively impolite.
Yo did not understand my intention (have you ever tried to?) to obtain those malware, even it is not important if I use the freeware of Avast (as I do) or not.
