Hi there, I had a strange problem with Avast today.
After I updated Avast 5 Free to version 5.1.864, the program asked me to reboot Windows, and I clicked "Yes". After Windows XP boot screen, the standard blue "welcome" screen didn't appear - the computer just restarted itself, again, and again, indefinitely. Then I entered the Safe Mode, and disabled all Avast services in MSConfig. That didn't solve the problem, so I uninstalled Avast - the problem was solved. Any explanation on this?
