Download the uninstall utility`s http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility

run the V5 remover and reboot
run the 4.8 remover and reboot
run " Eusing Free Registry Cleaner " fix all and reboot http://www.eusing.com/free_registry_cleaner/registry_cleaner.htm
Install V5 again ....reboot......and pray......

Hey im doing this as we speak, but you guys totally forgot about me using Immunet Protect as well. What do you have to say to that.

Well, here is a little more detail on my case. When avast opens up, it says system is unsecured, in the summary and theres a "Fix Now" Button next to it. When I click it, nothing seems to happen, although ive noticed, a prominent label shows up saying "upgrade to AIS for 50% less".

The other information that is shown states, "The avast antivirus program has been stopped, or is in an inconsistent state, Please re-start the program to resume protecting your system. And theres a Start Program button next to it.

Then when i go into the real time shields, the protection status is UNKNOWN. and when i try to start the shield again, It says, SHIELD UNREACHABLE.

When i attempt to start a scan, it says, Unable to start scan, THERE ARE NO MORE ENDPOINTS AVAILABLE FROM THE ENDPOINT MAPPER.

So, this is a real detailed look at whats wrong with the installation on my computer, as stated earlier, Avast is accompanied by Spybot S&D, Immunet Protect and USB Disk security. Windows XP Sp3 Pentium 4 512mb ram.

That is a lott of stuff you've got working for you, isnt it?

way too much...
even when not resident - some parts allways load in background..,
anyways.

You are wrong. The programs in my signature that are not resident load nothing that is resident. I've checked thoroughly. Of course, MSIE is always somewhat resident in Windows since it is embedded.

If you think that some parts of the others are resident, would you mind listing them?

Nothing there, at least from the non-resident programs in my signature. With SuperAntispyware, when I installed it, I disabled it checking for updates which was the only part that stays resident.

and i would replace Spybot S&D with Malwarebytes www.malwarebytes.org

Done it exactly as you've said. The result is *Hold ur breath* Avast is up and running again. PHEW! It seems okay for now, although i think it has some issue with its update process (program update). Might be nothing. Ive dropped Spybot even though we've shared a long relationship. Its MBAM now. Everything seems okay right about now.

And do anyone of you guys know what Immunet Protect is? How it works? Is it any good??
Or should I post this as another topic as well???

So far, I believe this issue has been resolved. If there are any further issues that might creep up, (because it dies after a few days of installation, like all the other times. I hope it doesnt now!) I will keep all you guys Posted.
For now, A big thanks to Pondus, Gopher John, Asyn and any others whom names i cannot remember. Thank you Guys.!

You might take some time and check out Wilders Security Forums. Most software is discussed in length there.

Asyn, I was just saying, the OP would get a better idea from Wilders Forums discussions, than any quick answer I would give. Of course you or anyone here can offer an opinion.

ok. i offer an opinion:
if you don't want to post your 'long version' don't post at all.
i and maybe others don't like to be redirected to any other site to be maybe more confused than before - most people - i think - use the forum to get answers from people, who already been there, did read it and are now knowing bout the problem, whatever it is....
but it's maybe only my point of view..!?
nevertheless anyone is thankfull 4 any feedback, if stuck.
love, peace and happyness,
asyn

Asyn, your immature-comment reminds me of a sign I was checking out in the last pub I was in. It read,

" Please Engage Brain Before Opening Mouth"
