hi Compass,
All data/web traffic is scanned by avast! if it is http:/unsecure but not if it is https:/secure. So you run the risk of downloading a malicious file under the https:/secure server settings and avast! cannot detect it because it is not set to scan https:/secure traffic.
Just be sure to always scan your file(s) first before opening or running them if this is what you wish to do.
