Title: Avast - unsecured
Post by: Mr Wonderstuff on March 13, 2013, 11:59:19 AM
I am helping a friend whose Avast currently shows unsecured. Repairing doesn't work and brings up a message about another program wanting to shut down Avast. Uninstalled Avast using the uninstall tool and reinstalled...worked fine but on bootup reverted back to unsecured. Will post logs...

I am having a similar problem. All of a sudden Avast shows as "unsecured" and "Not registred" 0 days remaining. Repair or resolve all doesn't work. Tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and registered for a new key- worked until I rebooted then it was back to unsecured "not registered". Been using Avast for years but this is new.

Ideally this should be in your own new topic as it may not be the same issue.

This is for both of you to try if it doesn't work for Dezarius then please start your own new topic so as not to confuse this one.
- Download the latest version of avast, 8.0.1483 http://files.avast.com/iavs5x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe (http://files.avast.com/iavs5x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe) and save it to your HDD, somewhere you can find it again (if you didn't save your last download). Use that when you reinstall.

- Download the avast! Uninstall Utility, aswClear.exe find it here (http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility) and save it to your HDD (it has uninstall tools for all versions).
This needs to be followed exactly including running the uninstall for the previous and current version of avast.
