This has already been reported and will be fixed.

I would think that 1 or 2 RCS would be in order  before the final version is available.

My guess is that that won't be a final version of 7 until around the time that W8 RTM is finalized which should be this coming summer.  Just a guess but I got I was pretty close on the 7 Beta when I said it would probably become available around the time that W8 Consumer Preview aka Beta became available which will be in about 2 - 3 weeks

I saw something from Avast that said they expected v7 to launch about 2 weeks after the start of the public beta.

I'm hoping it happens before March 1. I'd like to introduce it to all the Computer Clubs who are a part of AZACC
I'll be visiting Arizona during the month of March.

Good news but will it be UEFI compatible or will be have to wait for say V8 before seeing that?

@Nesivos: avast! doesn't need to support EFI/UEFI at all.

Our "Boot time scanner" is a Windows program, it runs when the computer is started during Windows bootup (just like e.g. autochk.exe, it does essentially the same thing as Chkdsk but will only run during bootup). It's executed as the first application in the loading phase. I played a little bit with EFI programming and this layer is totally separated from Windows applications.

AVAST plans to release the avast! final version 7 in approximately 2-3 weeks.

@INGBEAN: that's correct!

I have in the Spanish section of the forum a member saying that " it is really hard to see Avast! 7 for the visually impaired ". What can he do to make it easier ?

@iroc9555: can you please ask for more details? I mean, what's worse compared to version 6? Thanks.

Done. Thank you pk

Since I also saw a post in English by the OP, I also adviced him to continue the conversation here, or to get in touch with you.

Not sure if this has been mentioned already.

Avast Internet Security Suite 7.0.1396
Windows 7 64 Bit

Sandboxie will not work with Avast 7 installed.  Browsers open then crash.

*could* be some conflict with AIS sandbox driver ... just a guess, I don't use Sandboxie.

Hello I wanted to point out that the WEBREP of firefox and 'language instead inlgese' in Italian.

3. Some web pages do not display properly with Web Rep plug-in activated in IE9. With the Web Rep disabled, the pages display properly.


Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP-1 fully patched. IE9.

Hello,
can you give me some examples of that pages? Is it 32bit IE9 ?

Thanks,
Ivan.

Hi Ivan, iv not had any issues with pages displaying wrongly but i did notice that webrep seriously slows down browsing, i'd actually thought it was just the usual slowness of the avast forum but when i tried it with webrep disabled everything was fast again.
I played around a bit with closing the browser, uninstalling webrep and rebooting then browsing again and all good but as soon as webrep is reinstalled and activated it's back to very sluggish performance again followed by myself disabling it again and browser is back to normal fast speed again.

I hope this can be improved on in future build's 

Hi,
browsing performance should befixed in next build..
