CD Notification
«

Is it possible to stop Avast from cancelling a shutdown when there is a cd in the drive. I have disable boot from cd/floppy in the bios so there is no risk of boot infections. I often leave a cd in the drive and find it most frustrating when I go to close down the PC only to return and find a little dialogue box preventing the shutdown telling me what I already know

Just go to the program Settings and disable this option (in the "Common" page - it's called "Check CDs in drive when logging off").

First, start the user interface (from the avast! blue tray icon, select "Start avast! Antivirus"). Then, rightclick anywhere into the window and from the menu that will appear, select "Settings".

Invervagas, I'm just wondering... did you turn this feature on (previously) or has it been turned on since you installed the program? The thing is, this feature should (is) turned OFF by default...

I do not recall turning it on but it is quite possible. Its been quite a while since I installed avant so I wouldn't like to swear to it
