hello,
i am running a windows 2000 machine and i have installed avast in 2004 and its running excellent!
today, the machine isnt starting avast on startup and an error message appears:
"can't start C:/path/to/avast
access denied!"
i also cannot open the folder where it is in! everytime i click on it i receive the message above.
when i try to uninstall avast i receive the following message:
"error loading C:/path/to/avast/setiface.dll
access refused!"
the log of the firewall says, that ashWebSv.exe and ashMaiSv.exe are running. May be that the Main Programm (ashServ.exe?) can not be found? I can not go into the folder where these exe files are.
i can not install just a second time avast over the crashed version.
secure mode was negative.
so how could i run or uninstall avast?
win2k, SP 4, athlon 2000xp, 512MB ram, seagate 80GB
sygate firewall
thanks, frank
