[Solved] Unable to start firewall!

[Alikhan]

have you tried latest beta version.   http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=142550.0

I have already tried the beta version of avast, with no luck.

Just to be clear here, you did use the online installer I linked? Did you run it from the Desktop and as admin?

[joey6505]

I didn't run it from my desktop, but I ran the one you sent and as admin, yes.

[Alikhan]

Meh, I'm out of ideas here. The last thing I would suggest is running it from the Desktop as admin.

[joey6505]

I'll give it a shot xD

[joey6505]

No, it still seems to be not working. Firewall just doesn't want to start 

[Alikhan]

Hopefully someone from the avast! team will be able to shed some light on this...

[joey6505]

I hope so

I really love avast and it would be a shame to have not choice but  not to use it (especially after paying for a year a few days ago -.-).

Not to worry, someone will find a solution/

I really do hope so xD

Excellent news guys!

I ran a malwareBytes full system scan and removed all the PUP etc that were detected. I then repaired my avast and BAM! Firewall is up and working.

Thanks guys for all your help.
