Thanks. It’s loopholes like “save file as .123 then rename to .exe” that I was looking to hear about.
For what it’s worth, comparing software builds with shields on/off, where a lot of executables from Visual Studio are run (compiles, etc.), not too terribly much time is used by Avast! One example Solution Build run was 25.26 seconds with Shields enabled, 21.87 seconds with them disabled.
The time was well over 30 seconds with Microsoft’s Win 8.1 Windows Defender default solution.
