Hi
I'm having a small problem with the resident protection. My problem seems to be the opposite of the other one that was posted here...
When installing Avast, I chose to have the standard resident protection. However, now I'd prefer to have it disabled. I've already disabled it and it remains disabled as long as I keep my computer on. Sadly, once I shut it down, the next time I turn it on the resident protection is once again set to standard. My first guess was that there was some problem saving the settings... however, when I disabled the database update to see if this was the problem, it saved that configuration. It just won't save the resident protection stuff...
I'm now considering uninstalling Avast and reinstalling it again (if I'm not mistaken, the resident protection is off by default). However, this is something that I'd prefer not to do (I'd have to download the updates all over again... and if I run into the same problem again, it could get annoying being forced to uninstall/install once more). Is there any workaround for this?
I'm running the latest version of Avast Home Edition. The virus database is the one updated on the 14th (it's the most recent one, I think). My OS is Windows 98.
Thanks for your attention.
Pedro
