Title: Running Avast! 4.6 ??
Post by: wdc202 on August 09, 2005, 10:05:14 PM
When I click Start\Program Files\Avast!\Avast anti-virus ... Avast! runs through a start-up check for about 30 seconds, following which the screen says "Avast! will now continue." But it doesn't continue; instead I am returned to my desktop. What am I doing wrong?

FWIW, I have Avast! installed on my Aptiva desktop with W98.

Thanks. ... wdc ??

Do you use any other antivirus in your computer?

Can you try to repair your installation?
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > avast! antivirus > Remove. Then choose Repair function in the popup window (Repair). You must be connected to the internet while repairing.

If this does not help, can you uninstall / boot / install / boot again?
