Hi, New to this and a new install, I am finding that after I boot and and go to the simple user interface avast resident protection is labeled disabled in the simple user interface . Using the protection level slide does not activate "resident protection"
"Tasks running" icon ( which is only showing sometimes) shows resident protection is enabled for instant messanging, mail , outlook exchange, p2p. standardand web shield. Msconfig shows avast running . What do I need to do get it to show protection enabled in the user interface or do I simply need not bother with it?
Also clicking on the "chest" button results in error message "program cannot use chest. RPC server unavailable. Does this feature require input from the avast server? I am running 98se and zone alarm, with avast services enabled. Disableing Zone Alarm makes so difference. I have uninstalled and reinstalled avast. Any help here appreciated.
thanks, Cam
