I have a half-dozen computers here, all running Avast Free, some have had it installed for years, some just a few weeks.
EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM is inundated, multiple times per day, with your RIDICULOUS "AVAST IS IN SILENT MODE" popup.
I have Silent mode, all popups suppressed.
No, I am not reinstalling avast on all these machines.
No, I have not changed anything.
WHY IS THE SOFTWARE DOING THIS???
Most annoying "feature" I have ever seen, since the Microsoft Clippy thing anyway.
STOP THIS!
STOP IT NOW!
The entire POINT of Silent Mode is to STOP BOTHERING me with useless, annoying pointless popups.
