Can you try if the latest beta version solves this?Download the updater (http://files.avast.com/files/beta/aswbeta.exe) and run it or go here for more information.
Quote from: oldman on April 10, 2008, 06:15:40 AMAs mentioned, I haven't seen that happen lately. Perhaps something in avast has changed.Can I ask which version you currently use when you say you haven't seen it happen lately?

I don't know why you are waiting, avast is far better
I am kind of confused a little, is the beta the same as the 4.8?
Also when you asked to run the updater is that to be used when someone has version 4.7? what is it actually updating?
I actually tried to add another 256 of ram but for some reason when I turned on the PC and hit the internet explorer icon I went into a loop with a message saying that explorer could not connect and to restart, but as I say this went into a loop so I took out the RAM and the problem went away.One other thing I would like to add is when the new RAM was in it showed up as a total of 511 instead of 512.

Does the m/board have an Intel chipset with integrated graphics?Some Intel chips have an on-demand GPU memory allocation whereby a nominal 1MB is assigned to graphics but the actual amount being used is constantly adjusted on-the-fly as demanded by running programs. This can lead to display anomalies but I don't really know if your disappearing icons is one of them.

The newer functions of avast including the self-defense module are not supported or available in the Windows 9x operating systems.
It means that wait until doomsday you will never have support of the newer functions of avast, in any release of avast - beta or production, while you continue to use the Windows 9x operating systems.
