NEW Version: Avast Antivirus 2015 R2 (2015.10.2.2214)

[REDACTED]

I'm having problems updating to the latest version (topic). It says that I am unable to connect to the host.
Someone mentioned registry issues? Not too clear on the meaning.
I am running the Pro version.

1. Download Avast Pro Antivirus: https://files.avast.com/iavs9x/avast_pro_antivirus_setup.exe
2. Follow instructions: https://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Run this tool for all prior installed Avast versions..!!)
3. Reinstall Avast with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot.

Oh. Looks scary, but I will try it. Thanks.

After updating to 2015.10.2.2214, I receive 0x800CCC90 errors from Outlook Express, whenever I attempt to connect to the Verizon Mail Server. The problem occurs every time, and I have bypassed the problem by setting OFF the Avast Active Protection Mail Shield. Obviously, turning off the Mail Shield is not a preferred solution. This problem was not occurring for previous Avast versions. Any comments for a better solution?

I am using Outlook Express 6 with Windows XP SP3. Processor is AMD Sempron, which does not support SSE2 instructions.

The full error message is:

The server responded with an error. Account: 'incoming.verizon.net', Server: 'incoming.verizon.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Cannot establish SSL with POP server 206.46.232.10:995, SSL_connect error 1:error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC90

No problems here at all. We don't know what kind of computer you use. The amount of Ram and what other
Security or scanning programs you using. No 2 computers are ever alike.

During installation uncheck everything in second column, especially NG (virtual machine). After installation open avast -> settings -> troubleshooting -> uncheck enable hardware-assisted virtualization.
