| Avira Web Guard and GRC leak test
Hello,
Avira Antivir Premium 8 uses a proxy for its Web Guard, which in turn makes Outpost Pro 4 fail the GRC leak test. I do get a prompt, yet, even if I block the GRC leak test, it still indicates that it can connect.
How do I configure Outpost to block the leak test whilst keeping the Avira Web Guard enabled, or must I make a choice between potential leaks and web scanning? If the latter, then which choice would afford greater overall security?
Thanks, and best wishes,

| I'm not sure that you can but in any case I would disable web scanning (and improve web browsing speed), your AV still protects your computer as any malware will be detected on access.
