Avast STOPPED!!!!!
« on: August 25, 2009, 05:42:44 PM »
Avast has stopped. The icon in the system tray has a red circle with a red line through it. I have tried repeatedly to start "On Access protection" to no avail by right clicking a then clicking on Start On Access Protection. Even tried to renew my license number that did not work either.
Thank goodness I have a life time subscription to SuperAnti spyware and its working.
Please advise.

Which is your Windows? 98, Me, XP, Vista?
Do you use any other antivirus in your computer?

Can you try to repair your installation?
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > avast! antivirus > Remove. Then choose Repair function in the popup window (Repair).
If this does not help, can you uninstall / boot / install / boot again?

Is your system time and date correct?
Did you run anything that could have infected your computer and disabled avast?

The only thing I downloaded and installed was I E 8.
I unstalled and reinstalled Avast.
Have SuperAnti Spyware Pro Edition installed and is up to date.
Did a boot scan with avast no infections.
Avast is up and running.
Thanks,

These are not the last lines.
I need to see the part of your license and the error you've got in the installation/update.

sahara.QC, your log seems ok.
Can you try to repair your installation?
Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > avast! antivirus > Remove. Then choose Repair function in the popup window (Repair).
If this does not help, can you uninstall / boot / install / boot again?
