I too am a Win 98se user, and am a little concerned with this thread.
Has anyone out there managed to install 4.7.871 on a Win 98se system, without any problems??
I am currently running 4.7.844, and am inclined to stay on this version until I am happy that upgrading is not going to cause me any problems.
Has anyone in the Avast support team tested the latest version on Win 98se??
I have problems also - I have been using avast for a while now with no problems until I updated to v 4.7.871 yesterday (10 Aug 2006).
3 Problems I have are:
1. At every start-up I get a pop-up which says:
>> Standard Shield detected suspicious operation : write file : avast/setup/setiface.dll : yes // no // ignore <<
2. I cannot change any of the settings in "settings"
3. The user interfaces hang on the screne for some minutes after attempting to close them, either before or after scanning.
