AshServ.exe

[Quantum]

Hi I have the exact problem as Notar The AshServ.exe closedown problem.

My computer is totally different though XP SP2 Home Edition, I have Zone Alarm firewall.

I only installed aVast yesterday. I thought that before I tried to reinstall I might post this up to see if you would like to check any files inorder to discover what is going on.

Then you should try what resolved his problem, repair avast!

Add Remove programs, avast! Anti-Virus, Change/Remove button and scroll down to Repair, click next and follow. You need to be on line to do this.

This should do the same job regardless of your system. Let us know if it resolves your problem.

No what Imeant was. Because I have the same problem BEFORE I REPAIR I wanted to know if the aVast staff wantedto see any files to fid the root of the prolem. As in the previous thread WHY the problem happened was not resolved.

My thoughts are (not Alwil's), if you are experiencing a problem, first ensure that you have the latest version (which you have). avast! differs from many programs by having a diagnostic repair function, so it can check for missing/corrupted files/install.

So if there are any errors/problems first ensure that things are up to date and functioning (repair), rather than chase an error/problem that may be resolved by an update/repair. Then if there is still a problem any report/log would be more relevant.

Quantum,

Firstly, Zone Alarm should not affect ashserv.exe
ZA can prevent Avast from accessing the net, but will not shut down the exe.

Sometimes, "glitches" arise in a system without being present in another.  ONLY if the problem persists throughout the user community will it be necessary to take an indepth look at logs and such.

Right now, it is my feeling that the two of you suffered a user "glitch", nothing more.

and also.....If you are having the same problem as another user, then please post within the same thread.  It makes this easier to follow and takes up less room on the forum.

Glad you like Avast.

Hi I have the exact problem as Notar The AshServ.exe closedown problem.

I can't find and discover

Original thread was
"ashServ.exe - application error" by NOTAR  3.Dec.2004

This is obviously a quite common problem, judging from the long thread and the many readers indicated.

I have it too, seems to have popped up after the latest update. It does not appear every time at shutdown, just sometimes arbitrarely.

Have W2K SP4 all updates and fixes, Laptop Armada 1700 Pentium 2 300MHz, Avast pro
