Can't install Avast
« on: October 03, 2010, 11:02:17 AM »
I use Seven and when I try to install Avast it say to me : "You can install avast! only on Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4 or higher."

what's your exact OS version?
avast can't be installed on Windows server edition - and your pre-RTM versions (build 7068) may cause some troubles, because avast hooks some internal OS functions and I know they changed some addresses between beta and rtm versions (that's why sandbox will not evan start, etc).
