大多数人都认为WEBGUARD 和MAILGUARD 都没有用,其实这就是为什么红伞免费版和收费版的区别,对于个人,不参与商业,公司的运作,确实C版就够了,所以红伞也定义为AVIRA ANTIVIR PERSONAL 。是很准确的.
因为个人一般都不使用OUTLOOK 以及企业使用的OUTLOOK企业版。企业使用的OUTLOOK企业版允许用户在个人电脑上收到公司发的邮件,而且保密性,功能更强大。 而一旦使用了企业版OUTLOOK,那么安全性就很重要了,因为企业机密等都在里面。本地下载和浏览,以及垃圾邮件的防范就显得很重要,这也是收费版红伞MAILGUARD 存在的原因,所以这个是商业用的,要付费. 其实这就是大多数人不使用的原因,因为个人一般都是用网页邮箱,并且现在的邮件服务商都提供邮件扫描和防垃圾邮件功能,所以个人使用MAILGUARD的意义不大
而WEBGUARD呢,大家看这篇文章,Avira and KarstadtQuelle Bank cooperate to increase security in online banking

Joint initiative seeks to provide information to end users and promote secure online transactions
Tettnang, 31 March 2009 – Phishing, Pharming, Spyware – there are untold dangers lurking on the internet. In a recent Avira poll, 43 percent of people using online banking expressed serious security concerns, due in part to the numerous scandals about data over the last twelve months. According to data from the “Verein Deutsches Sicherheitsnetz e.V." (German Association for Data Security and Data Protection), two thirds of all privately used PCs are in serious danger of being compromised by criminals. Virus’s are not the only threat lurking on the World Wide Web, internet attacks on confidential bank data are also escalating. If consumers become victims of phishing attacks, they don’t necessarily have the law on their side. If they do not exercise due care and have not installed an anti-virus program, the odds are against them in a court of law.
The joint campaign of Avira and KarstadtQuelle Bank aims to address this problem. End users’ should be made aware that they have to secure their data to protect their money . “We are working hard to clarify the security risks of online banking to our customers, and we use our regular newsletters and the security pages of our website to point out the dangers of online banking. Avira is the perfect partner for us in this endeavor", explains J?rn Eickholt, Vice President at KarstadtQuelle Bank. “The fact that the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) also recommends Avira’s security solutions also convinced us of this. As the only German virus protection provider, both private users and businesses can count on prompt German-language support services.”
The KarstadtQuelle Bank has comprehensive measures in place to secure data transferred during online banking and while being processed by the bank. These measures ensure, for example, that confidential data cannot be viewed or amended without authorization when sent over the internet. “Of course we have no influence on the systems used by our customers for online banking and it’s therefore even more important for us to communicate the security risks and recommend proven security software, such as the solutions provided by Avira”, declares Eickholt.
“Not all users of online banking are IT security experts, and it is therefore important that bank customers understand the dangers”, says Rainer Witzgall, Executive Vice President at Avira. “Avira recently launched the secure online banking initiative. Together with banks and partners like the KarstadtQuelle Bank, our aim is to help private users to carry out money transfers securely and without risk."
The Mailguard and Webguard features in Avira solutions such as Avira AntiVir Premium or the Avira Premium Security Suite, provide users with protection against all kinds of phishing attempts. Mailguard highlights these emails as phishing emails and Webguard blocks access to the phishing web pages. Avira's portfolio also includes security solutions for businesses using online banking for everyday transactions. For more information, go to www.avira.com.

其实西方的信用卡普及程度很高很高了,红伞的WEBGUARD能让信用卡被窃取等的可能性减低到最小,在病毒连内存都没进入,就扼杀在摇篮里。大家知道,信用卡被窃取,后果很严重,由于中国信用卡不普及,大家的意识也还是不强,所以就都认为WEBGUARD一点用都没有,。西方人是很重视个人隐私的,以前从德国寄回的信件,不管信封简单还是华丽,但是绝对看不到里面的任何内容。但是我往德国寄信件,信封价格很高,但却是半透明的,任何人都可以看到里面的东西。这也就是为什么人家叫 developed COUNRRY(发达过的国家) ,而我们叫the developing countries (发展中国家) 的原因.
所以他们宁愿让隐私保护到极点,也不愿意泄漏.
