Warning - system is unsecured
« on: February 22, 2011, 06:23:27 PM »
Why does the avast! symbol in the system tray say "avast! Antivirus: WARNING, your system is UNSECURED." and yet when I bring up avast!, it says "SECURED your system is fully protected"??

Hi badger66: Sounds like a little glitch. Try a reboot and if message still exists, try a repair of Avast by going to Control Panel/Add and Remove PRograms and choose Avast. THen click 'Change/Repair' and scroll down the options and click on "Repair". After repair is finished, reboot your computer.
Did that fix it? :)

The reboot seems to have fixed it.  Thanks!
