Run the uninstaller for any AV's you used prior to avast from here to remove remanents: http://singularlabs.com/uninstallers/security-software/
1. Download avast! Free Antivirus: http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=117113.0
2. Follow instructions: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed avast! versions..!!)
3. Reinstall avast! with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot

I unticked "Scan all files" under "Scan when opening" tab in "File System Shield" Settings. Now I'm having no CPU problem. But the system is very vulnerable to viruses because Avast won't even scan .exe files in a folder when opening that particular folder in Explorer... Is there anything I can do for this?

This appears to be a self inflicted injury as Scan all files is unchecked by default (certainly on my settings). The text below it is the reason why it isn't enabled by default.

EDIT: wrong image attached.

Did a system health check and the above showed up. Not quite sure what, if anything, to do. I only use AV not the firewall.

which firewall is the best with avast 8 free version do not tell me to use comodo firewall or zone alarm firewall. is there any other firewall available to use with avast 8 because if i use avast with comodo firewall then i need to stop the auto stand box and behavior shield from avast and i don't want to stop any security features from avast so please help me to find out the firewall which matches best with avast 8 free .

i am using windows xp sp2 and sp 3.

You can use comodo firewall and disable the Defense + option and still use Avast sandbox

Thanks Pavel.
I'm hoping it'll allow me to install FW on Vista without CPU 100%.  :-\

When you fix the issues with the Gui ? Is still look like an ugly christmas white tree with a happy green face.

I think we free users eyes have the bad faith to view that ugly skin for ever... :(  I wonder..designers didn't get any other color!!   :-\

I hope not... This new version of Avast! might well be the most horrible looking free antivirus.
But as for me the protection is still the most important part.

Many new improvements have been done in protection (proactive protection)

This update doesn't fix the issue I had with the avast plugin for firefox I reported in an earlier post about webrep not honoring settings.

Thanks pavel and the avast! team for a job well done, although I had no problems before.
Updated from the GUI with no problems and ran a quick scan afterwards.
