How do I turn off Mail Shield notifications?
« on: September 17, 2016, 07:51:23 PM »
I have Avast Mac Security 2015 and I keep getting inundated with Avast Mail shield notifications.
I have looked at every  option on the menu and the only one that seems to apply (Preferences > Popups), has no effect.

"Great! Your doing a good job. Stay out of my face!"

Its getting annoying.

Setting the alerts to "off" works for me, so a little bit more info about the issue is required, to do anything about it.

Isn't the 2015 version a old one ?
If so, time to update I would say.

It is a little bit confusing, but 2015 is the current version. We plan to change (or drop it from the name)  the year in a "bigger" release in a few weeks.
Except of the name, "2015" gets regular updates as can bee seen in the changelog.
