Title: Shorten Update Popup time
Post by: bearmstead on February 18, 2010, 04:49:08 AM

In Avast5, is there a way to shorten the length of time that the update popup stays on the screen. I'd like to shorten it to 5 seconds or so.

Well, I did not find one in avast 4.8 (http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=1647).
The programmers should give a word here...

Hi  :)

The update pop up doesn't bother me.
I actually find seeing the pop up and hearing the voice very reassuring  :D

However!
Re: Avast 5 Update - Pop Ups!
You will notice in the corner of the pop up... Two Tiny Icons!
One is a Pin .. Presumably for if you needed or wanted more time to read the pop up.
One is a Cross .. Presumably for people that don't want to wait for the pop up to simply disappear by itself.

I find it reassuring as well, but the popup just stays there a little too long. I want it to go away a second after the voice does.
