XP telling me Avast is turned off?
« on: May 17, 2006, 11:22:14 AM »
Hello.

Recently, my computer has started reporting that Avast is turned off, but hovering over the icon says 4 servises are running, which seems about right.  The main services (Standard Shield, Web Shield) are running, so is there a reason this might be coming up..?

I've got the latest build and virus definitions, and the AV is clearly running 'cause it caught a trojan yesterday for me...

Thanks :)

No, the services are running and I'm fully protected, but Windows keeps popping up a security warning saying I don't have any anti virus turned on... even though it is.
