Post by: diane on August 18, 2005, 06:29:14 AM
when i installed the free version it said i needed odbc drivers. it gave me a link but it doesnt say what or where to download. what are the drivers used for?

can someone give me a direct link to the download area or do i even need them in order to use the program?  ???

If you follow RejZoR advice this may help your problem??

Dowload RejZoR's avast! External Control program from http://www.excessive-software.eu.tt/ run it

and select Change Database Storage Method (XML/ODBC) function. When you are in it flip the setting from

ODBC to XML. This should do the trick

Well if i remember right this function isn't anymore in avast! External Control program.
You can swich between the storages methods direct in avast! options.
