I'm not assuming. It's amusing that you took such a patronizing stance. As far as I am concerned, your comment is irrelevant. Most of the folks here have half a brain and know when they are doing something on the risky side. Your comment would have much more meaning in a forum where the folks don't know what heuristic actually means. Those folks probably won't know about it. It would take an amazingly skilled bloke to infect me or likely many of the people that will read this post. I'm usually virtualized, so unless the virus writer is more than the typical script kiddie that may get lucky, he won't get past the virtualization*. Before he gets lucky though, he would have to get past a few good scanners that I run. Avast just happens to be the one I like the most. I don't depend completely on any single scanner. I think it's unwise to put all your eggs into one basket in that respect. *Possible:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Pill but unlikely.
