Can't update virus definition files in Avast 4.0
« on: December 04, 2003, 06:03:21 AM »
I've been trying to update my virus definition files on my Avast 4.0 for two weeks now, but no good.  I right-click the Avast icon, and nothing happens.

I figured I'd reinstall Avast and start from scratch, but I get the following error when trying to uninstall:

"Error loading C:\PROGRA~1\ALWILS~1\Avast4\Setup\setiface.dll
The specified module could not be found."

I'm running Avast on Windows XP, by the way.

Hope someone can help me out.

Problem solved!!

I googled "setiface.dll + download," downloaded setiface.dll and dragged it into the setup folder, and I'm able to download updates again.  But it's a good thing this board is here, nonetheless.

I've seen nothing but good things from Avast.  I download from Kazaa from time to time, and if there's a virus, the alarm goes off.  Thanks, Avast!

Just curious -- where did you download the setiface.dll from? The pcsc.co.uk site?

Thanks
