Avira anti virus service: detect malware intrusion. Actually it does NOT need internet access, but only localhost socket. Using ZoneAlarm 6 you can block both local networks and internet access, it still runs smoothly, when blocking access to localhost using a more refined method (NetLimiter Pro "My Computer" fw blocking) then the avguard process cease to function properly (stalled shown under ProcessExplorer v10) with repeated sub process creation attempting to access 127.0.0.1 Therefore there is no privacy or trojan kind risk, IMHO. Only boredom: use 55MB RAM & network IO scrolling!
