Did you have any other firewall before?
What does the avast Panel show? Is any shield disabled?
I had no other firewall. Everything is running and nothing is disabled.

HI...
I use to have Avast... after lot time wasted to make Avast 5 working (blue screen issues) on Vista I decided to try a new one... AVIRA, fully FREE of charge

Oh... Avira is so desperate now that it sends spammers out to their competitor's forum?  :D

I just got rid of Avira everywhere, since their v10 is the most buggy piece of junk I've seen for quite a while in AV industry, comparable to the worst Symantec years back then. Good riddance!

Anybody hear about the mysterious registry key that avira installs? Avira refuses to say what the key does after repeated questions on the forum. Also, avnotify.exe, the program that launches the big pop-up that advertises the premium version phones home to google.com. Avira refuses to comment on this also. Scary. I have avira installed on one machine and avast on another. After I re-image the computer with avira, avira will bite the dust, especially after the avast.eu fiasco.

Same here. Running fine.

Preliminary thought, it seems much better on resources. Nice.

Yep, it's now 5.0.499. A few fixes (compared to 492), plus two new language packs. I've also edited the first post of this thread accordingly.


Thanks
