Happy New Year!

What we FIXED:
- Firewall now runs properly (without a PC restart) for those who’ve upgraded from Avast Free Antivirus
- Boot-time scan results can now be found in your scan history
- Fixed improper arrangement in our Web Shield detection (threat type and URL were switched)

======================================
Remarks: I have not personally downloaded/installed this new version. Users who choose to do so should proceed with caution, as this appears to be a major re-write of avast to take advantage of x64-bit systems. (It is no longer XP/Vista compatible).
