Avast Internet Security 8.0 Password override
« on: September 09, 2013, 12:10:23 AM »
Well, I did it. Made a password I couldn't remember, and did not back it up, or even write it down. It keeps me completely out of the program. I believe I was able to attach the registration #.

Thats a problem.  You cannot even uninstall it without password.

Maybe one of the evangelists knows more about this.

Or you can contact Avast over this form: http://www.avast.com/contact-form.php

Good luck. ;)
