said by Surfinusa :Are there pop up ads? And if so how do you disable them? Thx When updating, Avira-free manifests a pop-up (filename "notifier.exe", as I recall). You can easily block notifier.exe if you are running a HIPS such as System Safety Monitor, or Prosecurity, or Comodo Firewall's Defence Plus. Otherwise, just bear with the pop-up -- it takes 1 second to clear the pop-up each time.
P.S. I have used Avira for several years, with heuristics set at medium level. False-positives are VERY rare. |
