Title: Avast + Orbit downloader
Post by: AlexC on January 28, 2011, 08:44:05 AM

Hello,
I´ve installed Avast free (only the web shield) and set "ashQuick.exe" to integrate with Orbit Download Manager.
In parameters i wrote: /action:delete

I tried to download Eicar files through Orbit to test if Avast would detect and delete.
However Avast only detect, but dont delete the file.

If i understand it correctly, you installed only the web shield ?
In that case try and install and the file system shield, see if it makes any difference.(Control Panel-> Add/Remove Programs-> Repair Avast -> Custom -> Check File System Shield)

Firstly, follow Sparxx's advice.
On my computer it works as it should: message is shown and the file is deleted.

However it needs some time to work out... maybe the issue on the Orbit side.
Try "Restore default settings" in Orbit options and set it again.
