- SafeZone is now a standalone setup package (can be installed/uninstalled separately)

I guess you have to select it manually when you're installing Avast.. But do a repair and see if it works. Let me know what happens.

Cheers!

No it must be included by default. :)

Yes I know.. It HAS to be included.. But since the OP is saying that it isnt there, better check again (If repairing wont help)

When upgrading from 5.x to 6.0.1091+ SafeZone is not included by default.
It is possible to install it using update/repair, reboot is needed in most cases
to show in "Additional Protection" tab.
