Title: Calyx Point & Avast 8
Post by: micheleann on October 01, 2013, 11:46:56 PM

I have a client who is running Calyx Point.  When Avast updated from version 7 to version 8, Calyx ceased working.  The program will not launch.  I added it as an exception in Avast but still had an issue.  Spoke to Calyx support who stated it's an issue with Avast 8 and I needed to uninstall Avast & reinstall Calyx for it to work as the Calyx install was corrupt. 

--- Has anyone had this issue before/been successful in using Calyx with Avast 8?
--- Is there any way to reinstall Avast 7?  When I tried to install Avast 7 from an old install file, it immediately wanted to update to 8.

Thanks.
Michele

Never heard it before, but you could give avast 2014-RC1 a try and see if the problem is solved.
