Windows security warning

[lisagig]

I have recently switched computers and installed Avast onto my new computer.  Now I constantly receive a windows security alert saying Avast may not be up to date even though I have manually installed all updates available.  Does anyone know why this is or how I can fix it?  I did not have this problem with avast on my old computer.  I appreciate anyone's help!

Just a thought but what about turning off the windozes security alerts ??

@ lisagig
This could be as simple as the system date being incorrect, double click the clock and check the day month and year and adjust as required.

@ Fur
You shouldn't just kill the symptom but try to identify the disease.

If it is not the system time and date, take a look here:

  ooops

Trouble is i've had so many daft windoze errors that I never believe any of the rubish it spits out anyway

No problem, but hopefully it points to you should investigate any windows security alert (assuming it is a windows alert), google is your friend.

     Thank you!  That's exactly what it was.  I didn't even think of looking at the calendar.  I appreciate your help!

No problem, glad I could help.

Sometimes, viruses and malware change the system time and date. I suggest you fully scan with avast and if you have one, an antitrojan (like AVG or SuperAntispyware or SpywareTerminator).
