Avast and Windows Security Center

[Sean12]

Hi
Im using Avast in my home pc (Vista Ultimate 64bit) and im very new to Avast Anti virus after i installed my Windows Security Center does not recognize antivirus and i searched for this problem and i read about this one topic in this forum and i followed but still not works...this shows i dont have any antivirus installed ........
I followed this steps :

1. Go to control panel and open Administrative tools.
2. Click on services.
3. Stop these services:
    Windows Security Center
    Windows Managament Instrumentation
    SBSD Security Center Service (if you use Spybot Search & Destroy).
4. Let all them to Automatically start.
5. Remove the directory C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Repository
6. Go to Services and Continue all the Services above or go to next step.
7. Reboot
Not success and then i re-installed Avast again but still same thing.


Any advice...

I've tried the steps suggested in this posting, but still have the problem.  I started on Vista Home Premium, 64 bits, on a core i7 quad processor. I then upgraded to Vista Ulimate.  I've had the problem both before and after upgrading.  Is there anything else to try besides deleting the wbem\repository after shutting down the services?

Thanks,
