Problem with avast 6.0.1287 no activity in shield interface

[gtdurham]

If you go to statistics, you'll see that we're still protected, but just not seeing the active logs.

Confirmed. None of the shields doesn't show any activity.
Windows 7 x64

I have just done an eicar test and the alert function is working, image1. So the Summary status of Secured appears to be correct. But no activity in the actual interface for the Last file infected: field. In fact both these last scanned and last infected fields are greyed out in all shields, image2.

I think the system is protected, the only thing wrong is the traffic activity.

glad to hear than that we are being protected but the activity in the shield not running is gonna cause some people to panic thinking there anti-virus isnt working fully.

Stats are available, so the system should be secured.
See screenshot.

See Vlk's post

Yes it's a problem (affecting only the Free AV).
There will be another update tonight.

Sorry for the trouble.

Just tried downloading & saving malware from malwareblacklist & Avast protected as usual. So the protection is up & working fine, only the graph is not showing up. Every shield reacted to the malware as usual, File, Network & Web.

Thanxx
