Program update AVG 8.0.131 - SP1
Improvements
- Remake of internal communication to eliminate undesired program status appearance (hibernation, sleep mode, cold restart, ...)
- Display of the system tray icon representing running scan (that can be paused or stopped from the context menu)
- Added option to ignore the status of a component via context menu in the AVG main interface: the system tray icon then reports OK status even if a component is in error status
- New tab added for the rootkit findings in the scan results overview
- System restore point is created before launching a program update
- Added new option verifying the ADMIN Server connection in the program's advanced settings
- Improved EML file processing including scanning of user mailboxes
- RAM requirements optimization
- Improved statistics of detected objects in Email Scanner and resident Shield.
- New design of the system tray pop-up window, and more information provided
- To eliminate AVG collisions with OS, only minimum drivers are installed in safe mode; then it is possible to launch on-demand scanning from the command line only, and a new GUI dialog has been added to ease the scan configuration
- Added option of restoring a file from the Virus Vault to the original folder even if the folder has been removed
- Added option of deleting the Resident Shield and Email Scanner history
- Improved stability and design of GUI
- Improved GUI accessibility (using keyboard)
Fixed Bugs
- Fixed compatibility with AVG 7.5 Exchange Server extension
- Fixed problem of GUI compatibility with some screenreaders, e.g. JAWS
