I briefly scanned the forum and couldn't find this issue anywhere. I've been an Avast fan for years. I have a new Dell laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium SP2. It is the 32-bit version.
Have tried loading Avast. It seems to load OK, but when I reboot and try to log in, Vista "hangs" at the welcome screen. The only thing I'm able to do is boot into safe mode, uninstall Avast, and then the PC will boot fine. I've tried installing and uninstalling, but can never get past the "welcome" screen whenever Avast is installed. Anyone encounter this?
