Program update 7.0.1426

[BerensBeck]

Hello

All of the sudden today my Advast was not working.   Everything I have tried has failed.   I even dowloaded the CNET Tracker and followed their instructions.   A black screen showed up after I tried downloading Avast again saying that the download was successfull.  But then a small square box came on again saying Avast and after blinking for a short while said that the download was not able to complete.   I don't know what else to do.

is there any uninstaller for this new version 7

In the first instance you use the normal windows uninstall. The uninstall utility is there should there be a problem in using the normal uninstall.

For one reason or another I wasn't in here the last couple of days, so missed the initial announcement of this release.  Just now updated through the UI with no problems at all, and everything seems to be working fine.

With regard to the issue of now requiring an account to register (raised in another thread, I think?), it would seem that it only applies to a fresh install -- or possibly when renewing registration, which is still several months off for me.  I got no such notice when updating through the UI, or when rebooting afterwards, and my registration info seems to have been imported properly from the previous version.

I have it on my all my systems and seems to be running flawlessly.  Really liking it. 

I even switched one of my systems over to FREE.

Just fine.

Also I have problem with virus definitions update. Last update I received on 08/03/2012 19:49:07. No streaming updates at all. Connection established. How often I should receive updates?

You don't have a problem. The ones that you have are the latest (at the moment of your post).

Thanks

Updated from the program updater as with the last update I did a few days ago, did so without encountering any problems. Using Windows XP, service pack 3 with Comodo Firewall. Many thanks to the Avast team.

  nice improvements keep on progressing Avast

hey why cant you guys turn on PUP detection automatically in all the shields and scan settings? Avast IS SO MORE EFFECTIVE WITH THE PUP TURNED ON.
Also novice users don'tii dig up in the settings and hence they might think avast detection is a bit low but with it turned on, it would improve the detection rate based on default factory settings. Please understand!!
