I can't even upload an Avatar.

I want to change my avatar and can't. New avatar will not upload also.

Had to change my password and log in with email but it seems like everything else is back to like it was before.

For all the problems I encountered signing in it's still good to have our forum back.
Cheers to all!

Unfortunately not, as the myavast account is based on an email address.

Please refer to my following recent post:

I received avast.com email "AVAST forum offline due to attack" and imediately changed my password for the Forum. But I didn't receive any email from avast informing the recovery of the Forum. Today I accessed to the Forum whether it is recovered or not, and I found my deleted old email account based display name and I logged in with my changed password and could log-in, but the forum prile says "Newbie" and I cannot modify display name.

Now I try to access MyAvast account but it is out of service due to some terrors of the server.
Please kindly advise me how to arrange the matter.  Thank you.

Hello,
We run public test of the forum over the weekend. Users will be notified that the forum is online on Monday.

Old forum logins are no longer used. We do use MyAvast account instead. To gain access to your forum profile you have to login with MyAvast account, that is registered to the e-mail address in the old forum profile.
