Which is your firewall? Is avast allowed to connect?
Any other antivirus before avast?

I suggest an installation from scratch:

1. Download the latest version of avast! Uninstall Utility and save it.
2. Download the latest avast! version and save it.
3. Uninstall avast from Control Panel (if possible). If, for any reason, you can't run it, try booting in Safe Mode and doing it from there. Anyway, boot after that.
4. Run the avast! Uninstall Utility saved on 1. If, for any reason, you can't run it, try booting in Safe Mode and doing it from there. Anyway, boot after you've run it.
5. Install avast! using the setup saved on 2. Boot.
6. Register your free copy or add the license key for Pro.
7. Check and post the results.

Vlk,
Seems that you have solved the incompatibility with Virtualbox.
Can you confirm?

Hi, just wondering if anyone else is having this small minor problem with the new 5.0.677.  When I right click on the tray icon, the right click menu does not disappear unless you actually click on one of the options.  It used to disappear with the previous version.  Thanks.

i noticed something wrong with later builds of Avast! 5

it's related to streamed content (e.g. with latest DivX and some other video (rarely also big audio files) ...

as some point the stream become 'cut' and cease to work

when you disable Avast 5 and reinit then all goes correctly

I have to admit I hadn't noticed it as I generally don't right click on the avast icon without having a purpose in mind, e.g. selecting one of the options. But yes it is there in XP SP3 also and if you happen to hover over one of the sub-menu options and move away that, the sub-menu remains also.

Hi!
I have been having the exact same problem with Avast 5 as well. When I watch a streaming video online it doesn't run smooth like it should. It is always skipping along. It was so annoying that I uninstalled the previous version and used a different AV program in which solved the problem(this was about a month ago). I hated switching because I have been really happy with Avast for many years. When I read yesterday that there was a new update I quickly uninstalled the other AV program and reinstalled Avast again hoping that the problem will be solved but unfortunately it isn't for me. Btw I'm happy to be using Avast again. :)

(using Windows XP with FF)
