HOW TO DELETE LAST SCANNED IN NETWORK SHIELD?
« on: June 06, 2009, 09:14:55 AM »
Hello avast fans!
please help me out!
i tried to disable the 'avast self defence mode' in trouble shooting settings and then tried to open 'nshield' in C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\log
but i'm not able to open nshield because it says ' the nshield is being used by another program'.
and hence i cannot delete the last scanned items. Please help.

Hi navyis!

Basically what you described should be the way how it works...

What you could try additionally:
- make sure that the On-Access-Scanner-Windows is not opened
- stop avast! temporarily (rightclick a-symbol in taskbar --> stop on-access-protection)
- try to delete the file directly after a system restart

do any of these things help?

You can disable future logging into Network Shield.

But it will be good that avast team think on housekeeping a little easier than it is right now...
The best things in life are free.

An other possibility is to use the Advanced File Remover...

This program has already worked successfull for me...

You have to disable avast! self defense and then run the advances file remover... (I think you need admin rights...)
