W7 64bit

Avast GUI shows an IE PID running, but either no window opens, or it opens and closes, or it opens but remains blank.

Chrome opens in sandbox (though it took a very long time at first).

Anyone else seen this?

(edit - the top left blank window is IE in sandbox)

Made no difference I'm afraid.

 - and now Chrome won't open in sandbox either - though like IE the avast GUI says it's running, all I get (after a very long wait) is a blank window.

Sandbox is working fine here with both Chrome and IE9 with 7.0.1456. Have you tired a repair/clean install?

Yes I have - to fix a redirect driver problem that was stopping mail shield and avast shield from scanning - but it hasn't helped with the sandbox issue.

Neither has update to 7.0.1456

I think you should do a clean uninstall then.

1. Download the version of your Avast
2. Download ASWclear and uninstall Avast
3. Boot into safe mode and run ASWclear for all versions of Avast installed
4. If you have CCleaner, clean out the registry
5. Then reinstall the Avast

That should fix your issue.

Odd - I had minidump ticked for inclusion - may be an issue with support package generation?.

Is 070312-20810-01 any better (should be just minidump - not support package)?

That was a big file - upload at my speed took a while.

Hopefully you have it now  - MEMORYMAG.zip
