Thank you so much for a fast reply. I'll try to explain my self some better. In the section called Log Viewer, there are buttons there such as Warning, Notice, Alert, etc. Prior to yesterday, I can't remember if it is the warning or alert button, I could press one of those and it displayed all the virus alerts that had come in via scan or email. It would show, date, time and type of bug, where it was located, etc. That is no longer happening. Also, after my last 2 scans, the little clipboard thing has not popped up after the scan either. It always does as I have a couple of passworded folders Avast is unable access. So it tells me which folders it could not scan. I'm thinking maybe I should just do a clean install of Avast to be safe.
I have to say thank you for Avast. It is by far the best AV program I have ever found in many years on the Net. I've purchased the most notables, used the free ones and Avast beats them all hands down. Because of the huge volume of email I receive daily and the many web sites I visit, I have to have something very dependable and secure. Avast is the best.
