Hehe i can do this because i have plenty of time and i also have a rock solid platform to strat from. For example ODBC and XML changer took me 5 minutes to impliment it into AEC. Norton Cleaner took me one day,because i had to install it in virtual environment and manually get all entries and files to delete/clean.

No worries,just check for updates with integrated Smart Auto-Update utility :)

New in version 1.2.280:
+Enhanced Auto-Restart function
+Added avast! tweaker function
+Added Show tray icon tweak
+Added Use animated tray icon tweak

Here is another nice release :)
Read Readme file for more details.

Use Smart AutoUpdate function since it appears that i have slight domain problems (takes almost a hour to find it).

RejZoR
As always, very well done. The update worked like a charm and so did the new tweeker function.  Thanks

Your wish is an order...
Take care, I did not compress it and avast! could warn you about the *.exe file  ;D

I want to use WebWasher in the future but not right now...
Yes, I'm behind a proxy/router.  :)

Ok now proxy can be a problem. I have required settings,but don't know how to realize them yet. How to make settings for proxy permanent after setting them (so you don't have to set them each time you wanna check for updates). Hm...

Well, a lot of programs allow the configuration of a proxy (spybot, spywareblaster, avast itself)... Maybe an INI file? Well, you are the programmer and I don't know about this things. I'm just the user and in this case, more than the programmer, you are the creator, the owner, the boss, the all-in-one  ;D

I manually disabled the proxy filter and receive the update  8) It's not complicated, I can wait for you troubleshoot this  ;)

Re:[New version] avast! External Control 1.5 Coming soon!
« Reply #103 on: July 19, 2004, 04:12:21 PM »
Ok,since version 1.5 is almost finished (i'm still testing most of features) i can reveal some new features that will be available.

New in version 1.5:
+Fixed Auto-Restart function
+Fixed exit after every function command
+Fixed back commands for some functions
+Status page moved inside function menu list
+More detailed avast! Status info
+Status info can now be dumped into log file (on desktop)
+Merged avast! External Update (VPS and program core are now updated together)
+avast! External Control Update is now known as Smart AutoUpdate
+Added proxy settings for Smart AutoUpdate
+Enhanced startup section check for Mail Protection proxy
+Added VRDB generation interval tweak
+Fixed menu loop subroutines
+Fixed some variables
+Fixed text errors

This list might change on final release (probably one or two extra functions hehe) but these are mainly the biggest changes.

I'm also very proud on avast! Status Log dump feature which will simplify troubleshooting since it gathers most important informations about avast! and dump them into simple text file that can be posted her on forums. I'm sure Alwil guys will like this,because they'll just request this log instead of asking for thousand things regarding avast! (versions,path,installed providers and so on).
It also doesn't gather any private informations (you can check this by yourself if you open the log file) so there is no need to worry :)

Oh Boy RejZoR
I don't know about you (ha ha) but I'm excited.
Now there will be even more reasons for me to recommend your fine

Thanks again. :)
