Avast and script detection

I am interesting about Avast Home Edition but I have read that version 4.7 have no script detection.

If my affirmation is true, does anybody know a good "free" script detection program ? The program Microsoft Windows Defender it is a script detection program ?

Thank you

I have try Avast and it's very easy to use, have a great detection rate but have no script detection. But this problem can be solve if I install the Microsoft Windows Defender. But personnaly, I do trust the Microsoft security product. So, I search for another good and free script detection program.

AVG seem to be a good alternative to Avast but I cannot see if this program it's certified by the ICSA Labs and by the Virus Bulletin (April 2006).

AVG is certified by ICSA:

Virus Bulletin demands a $99.00 subscription to view their test history, but numerous positive references exist, e.g:

"With no false positives, AVG is worthy of a VB 100%"

I hope this helps you to make a decision.
