How can I view and copy these logs so that I can post them here? On the Avast program I can see my scan log but I cannot copy it.

What avast version are you using 4.8 or 5.0 ?

Which log are you talking about ?

If avast 5.0 - Most of the avast logs are in this folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Alwil Software\Avast5\log (this is for winXP, other OSes will differ.

Well you will have to look in whatever Vista now calls the old documents and settings folder. C:\ProgramData\Alwil Software\Avast5\Log

You didn't say what log it was you were viewing ?
