I’m really disappointed on G-Data policy of scarewaring users and pushing their products. Videos in the official website do the same.
In this particular case, although it’s a good tool, it is just for none fake AV, not to the most of them.
They’re always hyping. That makes me upset with them.
Well when you consider what MBAM was originally called, RogueRemover, it was pretty much a Specialist/leader in that field. I don’t believe that has changed that much, it is still one of the best.

Since you can’t really “install” programs on a Chromebook, I don’t know how Avast would be able to do so. They’d have to create a plugin or extension for chrome (everything runs within the “browser” in Chrome OS). I guess with the “cloud” as they call it, you’d really have to ask Google or the “cloud” provider to install some security products on their servers, since all of the data resides with them anyway.
Internet Explorer 9 includes a reputation-based phishing filter called SmartScreen, which checks files, links, and sites against a reputation database before loading them in the browser. Early Windows 8 builds appear to be pulling this feature deeper into the operating system to give users the ability to check files against SmartScreen before allowing them to launch. These options have been spotted under the View tab in the Folder menu as user-selectable features. We have little doubt that they’ll make it to the retail product.
