Title: No More Popups?
Post by: jimb11 on April 16, 2015, 03:53:06 PM

I haven't had any for a week now. Did they change their policy on this or is it because I changed my popups to 2 seconds? Avast Free 10.2.2215

avast will show pop-ups if something is detected and to promote their paid software.
Other pop-ups have been removed a few versions ago.

The popups that I'm talking about are the ones to promote their paid software. I don't get them anymore I used to get them every day. Are anyone else still getting them?

I got a popup about this offer today in the paid version.

The discount is great but there's very little incentive for me given that most of the AIS features I already have are not compatible with my OS and hardware.
i.e
my CPU does not support SafeZone or Secure Virtual Machines
my OS (XP Pro) does not support the AIS 2015 firewall

After my 289 days are up, I'm changing everything over to Avast For Business.
