Shield's?
« on: August 16, 2012, 07:40:28 AM »
I think this might be the right place to post this..? o.o
Cant turn on; “ File System Shield “, “ IM Shield “, or “ P2P Shield “ on my Free Antivirus by Avast. What do I do? I have the account setup and everything, but when I click on “ Turn on “.. Nothing happens.
And if i try to log on to the Internet, after a while.. everything starts to like freeze. And i'm forced to push the button on the tower to shut it off. What is happening?

Control on my computer? Or on the AVAST? Because i'm not seeing a " Add / Remove Programs " tab on the AVAST. I see a Summary, Scan Computer, Real time Shields, Additional Protection, Maintenance, and Market.
