Web Shield Report Location
« on: October 25, 2014, 12:37:45 AM »
Hi, got a spike on web shield alerts today, I want to view the reports in detail but couldn't find it anywhere using the UI.
Anything idea where the web shield log or report history is located?
Thanks!

Surprise, surprise Eddy - you will actually find it in the Report folder for information on web shield alerts.
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AVAST Software\Avast\report\WebShield.txt winXP location
C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report\WebShield.txt Vista and later OS. This may be a hidden folder, depending on your windows explorer folder options.
