"Enable avast! Internet Security (important)" in Windows 7

[bong2x]

Okay cool that you guys invest time in helping and learning, thumbs up from here!! :-)

Regarding my issue.. I guess my avast is working properly, it is just Windows 7 Solution Center is b*tching. Just because my solution center can't recognize the program, doesn't mean I'm not protected, right?

it must be recognize.
because it is a security software that protect your system. if your system itself refuse the protection there is something wrong that block or there is something needed like update or something in avast component that not will in place.

I've had the same issue from Windows security center. Its just an annoying issue, as long as Avast is functioning correctly, you should be fine. You may want to try a complete reinstall (annoying, I know), I believe that's all it took for me in the past. Windows security/action center has always been a little goofy, Vista especially would have issues recognizing antivirus programs.

Okay I've done everything you said but it doesn't change what my solution center claims :S

On the window where I can click "Start the program"

it says:

"Used settings:
Windows-compatibility state: Windows XP (Service Pack 2)"

Does that have anything to do with it?

I do not understand how you get there.

@ bong2x
As you are not using Windows 7 you are not helping.

As somesome11 says that maybe a fresh install would be good.
