So I had avast on my laptop for several years and never had a problem, it's a GREAT program.
I sold my laptop and got a desktop and installed avast on it back in July.
I have had the problem where I can't update the definitions or the program at all, it just keeps giving me an error.
I also can't update Windows(vista) or the Windows Defender.
I have run full system scans, boot scans, and come up empty handed.
I installed and ran spybot S&D and it came up with a bunch of malware that I quarantined, I've restarted several times, but still can't update any of my avast stuff.
PLEASE HELP.....this is getting really annoying.
The other issue I'm running into is when doing a search(google, yahoo, etc.) when I click on a link in the search results, it takes me to some b.s. spam page instead of what I clicked on.
