AVAST 8 Program update! (8.0.1489)

[Irbidan]

Google Chrome and Spotify are going slow in these last updates with Avast! running... 

Tested with Windows 8.

Please, check that software.

Just wanted to report WebRep not holding position and showing in a google search in IE 10 on a Windows 7 32 bit and 64 bit, and on a windows 8 64 bit. The browser crashing seems to be solved. Saw this reported for other browsers but did not see for IE 10. Just wanted to be sure it was reported. Thanks sly

I am experiencing the same difficulties with WebRep and IE10.

I was playing around and found on the windows 7 32 bit I could put WebRep on the left side of the menu bar and it will stay, I was putting it on the right side which it would not stay. Will try this on the other computers. I will include a photo. Hope this helps. slybo

Edit, I should add I did this by moving the menu bar to the line that WebRep was on, does not work in reverse.

My WebRep is still grey out using the latest FF v20.0.1 and I thought Avast has already resolved this issue may I ask what's going on please, MAN! Avast is always having problem with WebRep just doesn't make any sense to me at all

[Nawach]

No problem for now from 8.0.1483 to 1489, via GUI, on Win XP Home SP3.

WebRep is not activated on my system, as I still don't see the use for it.
Its only purpose is to flag potentially dangerous websites based on avast!'s users reviews. Nothing else...
(It's a bit like trying to compare a Force Field -avast! main core- to a sticky note with a written warning on it )

But thanks avast! Team anyway!

Different type of danger though.
Sure, avast! tells you whether the particular website is infected - i.e. containing malicious code/script. The purpose of WebRep was to cover things on "higher levels" - e.g. if the particular e-shop is sending fake goods, charges twice etc.; that's something avast! won't tell you, but the users might.

I see. Thanks for clarifying, Igor. Makes sense from that angle...

But the game Dead Space's still not working.

That isn't a 'Program' version issue but more to do with virus definitions, which are the same across different program versions.

You need to create your own new topic in the viruses and worms forum and outline your problem in more detail (what happens, error messages or avast alerts, etc.).

@ DavidR
The game does not start, there is no message. It is not only the question of virus. The Avast version 8.0.1483.72 after the introduction of amendments:
Fixed issue with ZoneAlarm
Fixed issue with constant CPU frequency
Fixed issue with video players
Fixed issue with Virtual PC
Added some localizations
  Something corrected, the game began to work without a problem,
If I uninstall Avast running game. It is the same with the game Hunted.

Can you please uncheck "Enable hardware virtualization" in Settings->Troubleshooting? Reboot is required to apply the setting change. Is it Dead Space 1,2 or 3? Can you provide details about OS and CPU.

But the game Dead Space's still not working.
