Gehört zu Avira AntiVir. Ist jedoch für die Virensuche NICHT erforderlich. Es startert beim Virus-Sigantur-Update ein nervendes Pop-Up. und kann daher gelöscht werden. Wichtig ist hingegen der Prozess avguard!

Wird nur benötigt, um das automatische Onlineupdate durchzuführen. Kann über "msconfig" deaktiviert werden, danach ist noch manuelles Update möglich.

It is not needed to protect your pc.. Close down the process then download the eicar test virus http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm and you will find that avguard is still running which protects you. avguard does not appear in stsrtup it runs automatically , avgnt can be removed from startup after the update schedule has been set and the updater will still run. However this way you will have to terminate avgnt again afterwards. I prefer to chain my browser launch to "preupd.exe" which just launchs the updater at browser launch so I do not forget.
