Installation went ok for me. What I didn't know, wasn't warned about, or gave consent to, was the installation of other software at the same time. I DON'T want Googlechrome installing, and I don't want unknown extensions added to my Firefox browser either. If I want software, I go find it and install it myself.
As a result of v7 now behaving like malware, I am now removing it -just a few minutes after it finished 'updating'. I'm hgoing back to v6 as a temporary measure, but will remove that in favout of other software ASAP because AVAST obviously cannot be trusted and support for v6 will end eventually anyway.
What other things are going on in the background that avast hasnt warned users about? personal info being sent somewhere perhaps?
shame on you avast.
