NEW PROGRAM UPDATE 7.0.1473

[Baked]

Registered just to add to the pile of users that are also experiencing the freezing after logging in on Win7 x64.

Uninstalled in safe mode, rebooted, reinstalled and sometimes my system will freeze after a few hours right after installation or right after a reboot.

Currently don't have it installed. Is it possible to download the older build?

I'm experiencing the exact same issue with this version and wondering the same. Also had to uninstall Avast in safe mode.
In the meantime I will be using MSE and Malwarebytes...

For me, this version is working perfectly.

Try doing a 'Select folder scan' and see if the report is blank or reports that the path couldn't be found,,,,,,,SOMEONE?!?!?

Previous versions of avast! should be available on FileHippo if anyone needs to or cares to revert to a previous version and has not saved the installer file of that version

If you decide to revert back you should follow avast! procedures for uninstalling avast! before reverting back.

Well this is weird,  same freezing issue with the 1466 build... Maybe it's a issue with the virus database? Writing this on my mobile. Time to boot into safe mode and uninstall avast again.

I´ve got exactly the same probs as Tomaso:

I just did a clean install of v7.0.1473 (Free version) under WinXP/SP3, and I ran into an avalanche of error messages!!

After installing (computer offline), I first got this error message:



Upon the following reboot I got the same error message for just about every application trying to run on my system!
(The applications still functioned though)

I managed to configure avast! the way I use to, disabeling all the unnecessary stuff that the developers keeps adding to it..
(AutoSandbox / Browser protection / Remote Assistance / Site Blocking / Cloud Services / Community features)

..when only the "File System Shield" remained, I rebooted once more (computer online)..
This time there were no more error messages!
..go figure.

(WinXP-SP3,English / avast!,English / Location:Norway)

The same barrage of these "CsrVerifyRegion" Errors !

My sys is also WinXP SP3. After doing a system restore everything was fine again.

Did you guys accidentally use some routines/files intended for Win7 on the WinXP install ?

Don't think so, as it works fine on XP here.

Alright then but what went wrong ? And what´s the solution ? Complete uninstall of Avast and install of the latest (1473) version via setup.exe ?

[Asyn]

Which avast!..?? (Free/Pro/IS)

I don't think so either, working fine with XP Pro here:
- Try a repair of avast:
XP - Add Remove programs, select 'avast! Anti-Virus,' click the Change/Remove button and select Repair, click next and follow.

You should reboot after the repair.
