installed, rebooted, searched the GUI a bit to see what's new...firewall settings: first thing I noticed is that the "enter" key doesn't work on the password dialog box, no big deal, I then wanted to open the packet rules interface, prompted for the password again (which is normal), noticed the interface was new edit: it was just resized..., but empty, no rules, and >>> CRASH of Avast ;D I got a minidump generated automatically by Avast + one I generated manually from Windows task manager. I'll upload that to your ftp site and send you (VLK) the archive password by mail.

Thanks, will be fixed in the next refresh (today/tomorrow).

"real time shields" in the status bar details shows "on" even though some modules are off (deactivated by me).

I don't seem able to simulate this. BTW have you changed the Status bar settings (in program settings) in any way?

It would be perfect if one day Avast will repair (cure) infected .exe (patching virus)  in boot scan as Dr. Web Cure it does.

It does, but only some of them (only the ones that are generally not rewriting the original file parts).

FW  LOG for connections can not be sorted by time :
clicking on the time field does nothing.

Strange, seems to be working here. Do you see the arrow icon in the list column?


Thanks

Yes , I see the small arrow , clicking on the field name should re sort the column immediately -
Instead it resorts  only if I refresh the window (i.e. click on another AIS section and then return to FW LOG view )

yes, as said I un-ticked what I don't use to avoid the warning on the tray icon and the "fix now" on the status bar. Anyway, the detailed view is still supposed to show "shields off", and actually it does again after a reboot, so the normal and usual behavior is back (other than this I always thought than the "shields off" mention, even if just in detailed view, is a bit misleading, when just one shield is off).

Works fine for me (Avast Free) , the only problem is that related by Logos , with the enter key .

yes, confirming it's still there after a reboot, once you've typed your password, you lose focus on the dialog window and "enter" obviously cannot work. Not a big problem ;)

FYI The default button thing (pressing Enter not applying the default button) is indeed a bug and will be solved soon.

Thanks.

Vlk :)

As you know I am very happy that there is a Dutch translation with this release ( And you should release it as it is right now ;) ) but there is room for improvement here and there ;) My question : What is the procedure for this ??? Can I contact the translator, or maybe he/she can contact me ( You can give my email address to him/her :) ) or something else ???
