From what I can tell, everything else on my Avast install (Free 7.0.1474) works perfectly. But, I can't configure or start any virus scans. I click on the "Scan Computer" tab and it takes me to the Scan Now screen. But all of the buttons pertaining to the types of scans are blank. There's no text, nothing to click on, and the buttons/icons themselves are unselectable.
I asked Support about this before and they gave me instructions for uninstalling using the removal tool. I've already done that and reinstalled the software. But I'm right back where I started.
All I really know is that, at one point, those buttons worked and now they don't. :/
