Title: Just and Idea what do you Think?
Post by: kanga2cool on May 03, 2005, 04:34:24 AM
 :) Hi am a Long time user of Avast cool program I would like to see this small change if possible. When you start Avast you get the splash screen then it scan the memory then it opens the main program.
What I would like to see is get rid of the splash screen and memory scan at that point.
When you start Avast just have the main program start up the memony scan can start automatically with in the program maybe a red scan line or bar line note sure what to call it any I hope you get the idea.
Than you can chose to scan C\: or what ever.
I think this would look better what do you think.
Have a nice day all from OZ

Like what Anti Vir 6 does?  I don't see much differance, you'll still get your memory scan.  Of course, unlike Anti Vir 6 Avast can give you an option to cancel memory scan, plus that's seems to be the only area where people can re-register avast.  I couldn't find any other locations to do that.

I use Anti Vir 6 for a few months, when you run the program, the menu will open first, then the memory scan will take place.  Avast! is different cause it scans memory first then opens the menu.  It's just that Anti Vir 6 doesn't have a cancel button, which makes Avast! a bit more convient to use.   8)

To get rid of memory scan, just uncheck the option into avast settings, page Common... seems easy.
To get rid of the spash screen, run (or make a link to): C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashSimpl.exe
