While I realize that this is not an antivirus forum, hopefully someone here uses (or is familiar with) Free Avast Antivirus since the Avast forum, is helpful-Please answer each question separately:
1a. Menu->Settings->Protection->Wifi Inspector.
'Network3 ' shows Public Network, 'Network' shows 'Public,' and the 'Local Area Connection' slider originally had a green checkmark (enabled)and showed 'Public Network' on Thurs.
However, on Fri, the LAN slider changed to a red bar (disabled) so I manually slid it back to green (enabled).
Should the LAN slider display a green bar? If so, what does the red bar mean?
b. Wifi Inspector scans and detects for vulnerabilities automatically and in real-time-However, there is a 'Scan Network' feature-Wouldn't the manual feature be overkill or am I missing a detail?
2. Unrelated, while I realize that the URL key-lock has a red line through it when a website has an insecure connection, is it still safe to visit it? The website in question is a care home facility but no personal information is being entered (I am just viewing information on the facility).
Thanks in advance.
