Welcome to this board,
Before we can help you, please provide more details like:
Do you (or did you) have another av installed? If so wich one?
What other security (related) software do you have installed?
Is your system clean from malware?

Try a repair of Avast.
control panel > software > add/remove > Avast > repair

c.barbaro,
there is no such thing as 'reformatted'. What exactly did you do? Did you setup the security correctly before going online?

Eddy, I think she probably did a System Restore (she said she is using Windows ME). If so she could use avast! External Control to do an uninstall then try to re-install. My link to avast! External Control does not seem to work maybe you have a working link !
