Hi Cloussau

Are you refering to the A icon on the taskbar ?

This icon is no longer there since I have de-activated the scanner earlier on.  ???

I shut down non-critical processes using Windows task manager.  One of the processes is ash.Disp.exe.  The "A" icon disappears after I shut down this process.  How to activate this again ?

Maybe I will not shut down this process in future....  saves the hassle.

Thanks for your reply. :)

in future pause it via the A ball and you will have no problems

You could try one other approch.
Click on the HelpfulShortcuts link in my signature and select
RejZor's excellent AvastExternalControl (AEC) program.
Select the avast! Main Control  and then select and run Disable avast! Anti Virus Protection.
I would not use this if your online because it completely turns off avast!

ashDisp.exe is the icon... if you close it (kill it), you won't see the icon  ::)
You can only run it again: C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashDisp.exe
