Web Shield

Web Shield is a unique feature of avast! that enables it to monitor and filter all HTTP traffic coming from Web sites on the Internet. Since an increasing number of viruses (and other malware, such as adware, spyware and dialers) are being distributed via the World Wide Web, the need for effective countermeasures has also increased. Web Shield acts as a transparent HTTP proxy and is compatible with all major web browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, FireFox, Mozilla and Opera.

Unlike most competitive solutions, Web Shield's impact on browsing speed is almost negligible. This is because of a unique feature called "Intelligent Stream Scan" that lets the Web Shield module scan objects on-the-fly, without the need of caching. Stream scanning is performed in operating memory only (without the necessity to flush the contents to disk), providing maximum possible throughput.

Network Shield

A new resident protection module was added to avast! 4.5: the Network Shield. This module provides protection against known Internet worms/attacks. It analyzes all network traffic and scans for malicious content. It can be viewed as a lightweight firewall (or, more precisely, an IDS (Intrusion Detection System)).

The Network Shield is only available on NT-based systems (Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista).

thanx 4m me also
I also dont know about these...

Avast also has another feature called VRDB (Virus Recovery Database). It helps to recover/repair if some how a file get infected. Don't know if every antivirus has similar feature.

VRDB: An important improvement of version 4 is also the possibility to repair infected files using so called Virus Recovery Database (VRDB). This database is generated automatically when the computer is idle (it can be set how often).
If a file is infected by a virus, avast! consults its data in VRDB and if the file does have a record in the database, it is recovered exactly to its original state.

I am going to give a try to Avira Antivir Personal after reading about it's better virus detection ability.

AVG is good-for-nothing. Use Avira if you want a free product.

Have tried Avg/ Nod32/ Kaspersky and AVAST!! and AVAST is the best among them!! and moreover its FREE!!!!!

Come on guys no flames please
