I'd recommend a clean install to v9.0.2013
1. Download Avastclear, Rejzors uninstall tool and the appropriate Avast program edition
Note: It's important you used the stub online installer from the one I linked.. NOT the offline one.
Note: You need to be ONLINE during this install (online installer works in all cases whereas offline sometimes doesn't)

Avastclear :

Rejzors Uninstall tool:

2. Uninstall Avast by control panel [If you don't have Avast in control Panel go to #4]
3. Uninstall in safe mode using Avastclear.
4. Run Rejzors Uninstall Utility in Normal Mode (removes traces avastclear doesn't) - reboot.
Check : Once uninstalled check in device manager>view>show hidden devices if there is anything related to avast with a yellow triangle.. if so, uninstall it and reboot.
5. Install the version you downloaded.
6. Reboot.
