Hi,

thanks for the report. The latter is a side effect of non-functioning service. And non-functioning service is really problem. Could you please create a support package and provide it to us? You can find it in application's menu:

Help >> Avast Technical Support >> Generate support package

You may then post the package to me as a private message her on the forum and I will analyze the issue.

Thanks.

Hi Mity,

I went to Avast WEBforum » Personal Messages » New Message, but can see nowhere how to send the file to you.  What am I doing wrong?
