message says that your time setting is incorrect  . Is that true or not? :)

You can get this message if:

1] Your system date/time isn't correct.
2] You use the home version and entered the key 14 months ago.
3] You have the pro version and the time you paid for is over.

Possible solutions:
1] set it correct. And check the cmos battery.
2] get a free new key from the website.
3] buy a new license.

I just checked again - it's correct. XP sp2. My computer was on since the last AVast program update - however I did reboot - and I get the same error. I'm running Avast 4.5.505

Hmmm. I am from outerspace, does that matter  ???  :o

Did you by chance removed Avast and reïnstalled?
Have you tried entering the key again?

Sorry eddy - I missed your post there. I guess I'll try a new license thing. Pretty weird error - and obviously Avast is not working on simple math  ;)

I'll try a repair install first I guess

crossed posts again eddy -
no - this 4.5 beta (all releases has been running smooth from the get go. Went offline roughly 24 hours ago, logged on (dsl) tonight (no reboot) and thats what I got. I recieved the "red box of pain" pop up in the lower right corner of the screen. hmmmmmm

I will try repair and if that doesn't work, will do a new license thingy.

re-registering worked  :)

However, whatever that problem just was is completely un-acceptable if someone has paid for the pro version.

Otherwise this thing rocks. I'd consider paying for this - its really kick arse, but that was bad. And I'm thinking re-registering a pro version might not be so fast...

Please send me setup.log file (from avast4/setup folder) to forejt@asw.cz. I'll check when and why that error message appeared.

Forejt, can you ask Pavel to give you a phrase like 'Alwil team' on your profile?
It's not common a single user ask for the setup.log.
I could only recognize you by the email server  ;D

CMOS
CMOS run  ;D

Yep, something happened with my clock - only my "better half" didn't tell me  :D

Still a pretty funky result - I mean you guys know when i registered and what day it is  :P

So can /does the same thing happen on the Pro version? Can that be corrected on the pro version as asimple as free version (reregistering) - if my clock would go nutz on me?

Not only can but will happen, for sure.

Sure, if your clock is wrong you won't be able to update...  ;)
The Registration number brings into itself its validity, the update timeout  8)
