Title: AvastSZB.exe - Application Error
Post by: REDACTED on December 01, 2015, 10:41:14 PM
This morning I went to Windows Update and clicked on the link to see if I have any updates available to download and install.  When I clicked on the update link I received the following message:

AvastSZB.exe - Application Error

The exceptiion Breakpoint
A breakpoint has been reached.
(0x80000003) occurred in the application at location 0x59aae1c9.
Click on OK to terminate the program

What is this all about, please?  Do I need to reinstall my Avast Internet Security or what, please?
I have Windows 7 with Service Pack 1.   Avast version 11.1.2241
Please help me solve the above issue?
Thanks for your time and have a nice evening!

SZB = SafeZone Browser.
Is the browser still working ?

See if a repair of avast solves it or remove the SZB and reinstall it.

True, sorry about that, as most people are in bed by you and not out partying.  You are either 5 or 6 hours ahead of me depending on when you change your clocks ahead.   Any way thanks again Eddy.

Hi SlyFox :)

I am glad that you have solved the problem, but I am curious :

- I assume you have set the Safezone Browser as your default browser ?
- Have you just updated to Avast 2016, and was this the first time you have tried Windows Update after updating Avast ?
- Can you update to the latest Avast version https://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=179855.0 and try Windows Update again ?

Greetz, Red.
