Solved: Virus updates.
« on: November 14, 2010, 11:13:54 AM »
Avast pro 5.0.677
Virus def. 10113-0

Avast status window says my virus defs. are out of date 10113-0 in red is displayed... yet when I update I am being told my defs. are up to date and the current version is 10113-1.

Thinking this may be a glitch would I be better waiting to see what the next update brings?

Usually in situations like this a simple reboot of the machine fixes this.  If not, wait until the next Avast update. 

Should you still have problems, you can do an Avast Repair:
- Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > Avast Antivirus.
- Scroll down and choose Repair function in the pop-up window.
- Reboot.

But I think your problem will be fixed the next time you turn your machine on.  Let us know if you still have problems.  Thank you.
