Title: Mail icon appears in wrong session
Post by: xyzzy on January 18, 2005, 10:18:51 AM
Mail scanning icon appears for the first logged session (with windows XP Fast User Switching feature), not for the currently displayed session.
I log to account A. Then, with FUS, I log to account B. I start receiving mail. The icon is not here. I switch to account A, and the icon is present.

Bug, feature, does it happen to anybody else?

Make sure that Avast was installed while logged in as administrator.

Avast was installed from Administrator account (not using RunAs). Users A and B belong only to Users group.

Are your mail accounts configured with 127.0.0.1 addresses ? If so, configure them as if avast was not there.

No, accounts are configured with names of my mail servers, so NOT like it was required for previous versions of Avast.

I see, this problem was solved for the (mail) virus dialog, but not yet for the icon, so it is a known issue.

Will it be corrected in the next update?
Do people know that avast will have a new version (not only build) soon?  :)
