Avast 7 No longer respect Webrep preferences
« on: February 24, 2012, 03:33:20 PM »
I posted this problem that I found in the 1st/2nd Avast 7 beta, but now it is coming back. 

I am using the new Avast 7 browser plugin excursively for the phishing filter so I have  "Enable WebRep" option unchecked.  In last Avast 7 beta, I didn't have any problems with it, with Webrep ratings not showing up in any of my searches b/c of the "enable webrep" option off but now Avast 7 final is not respecting my preferences.

I have to make note that I am currently Avast 7 limbo, b/c of registration issues specially this problem, so that may be part of the problem http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=93979.0

Seeing it in all three browsers, IE, Firefox, and Chrome

I finally was able to register via email (it took a while to get to inbox, so I was able to do it immediately), and now Avast is respecting my webrep settings.  Looks like Avast needs to be registered for the preference to work.
