Greetings,
I installed avast! 4 on my system a couple of hours ago, and I am still waiting for the VRDB update to complete. I have no idea how long this *should* take; I have no idea how far along it is; I have no idea whether it's even doing anything any more, other than spinning the tray icon.
I feel that there really should be some sort of progress indicator (a bar that goes from 0% to 100%, perhaps, or make it something else skin-dependent) to reassure me that it is in fact doing something useful... not just during VRDB updates, but during any long-term operation (more than 5-10 seconds), such as downloading updates from the website, etc.
Thanks,
