Very minor issue and does not affect the operation of Avast WHS but worth mentioning so that it can be corrected by Avast.  Running Avast WHS on my home server.  My client computers are all running Avast Professional and all running Windows 7 RTM.  However, despite the fact that Windows 7 had been in Beta and RC since January and is now RTM and being used on clients, Avast WHS reports that each of the clients are running Windows Vista as the OS, which is not correct.  It doesn't affect the funtion of Avast, but is Avast going to issue a patch to update Avast to correctly recognize the client OS?

Hi  same here, once I have installed Windows 7 x64 or maybe it is not supported yet by avast?

Windows 7 is released now and sill no update on showing the Windows 7 clients as Windows 7 machines instead of Vista machines? It can't be that hard to change that, can it?

In fact, since I bought the Avast WHS version, I never saw any program/add-in update for this. How does that come?

Grtz,

Does anyone have any update for this?

It's really strange for me the pc shows up as vista but also shows as it it's offline?

It's funny when I was looking around I was thinking of upgrading my client pc's as I have 4 of them all running the free version and my WHS running the one I bought for it but now as I see this problem going on so long i'm not sure I really like looking on my server to make sure every ones pc in the house is updated but his is going to be a big problem as I move forward with my windows 7 installs?

I can confirm this is happening on my network also. Windows 7 x64 with avast pro shows under the avast antivirus version as Vista.
