Status of Avast! Version 4.5??
« on: October 19, 2004, 08:58:53 AM »
It's been awhile since this question has been asked. Does anyone know the staus of avast! 4.5 ? I know BART CD 2.0 was just released and ADNM is still in testing phase. The Pro/Home versions of avast! antiviirus hasn't been updated since june of this year. I'm just curious. Any new news on features as well functionality? Thanks for your help in advance.

I believe VLK said they were timing the release of avast! v4.5 around the same time that they release adnm...which..btw.. I've read shouldn't be too much longer.

Hi there!

I'm also looking forward... because I'm having problems with that 16-bit environment issue. Had to switch to NOD trial, but will switch back as soon as the new avast! is out for download (Pro of course, as I'm a Pro user).

I think you will only have problems if you install SP2 without SP1 and other hotfixes.
Normal updating sequence (XP > hotfixes and patches or SP1 > hotfixes and patches or SP2 directly > hotfixes and patches) does not appear to suffer any lack of 16-bit protection.
