;p will keep that for the last resort. cus script shield is working fine with the 2 other browsers (IE9 and firefox v11.0)

and the problem with google chrome only happened after i updated it to v18. v17 it was working.

@ Coolmario88
Have you not seen this topic, http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=96535.0 but there appears to be a link in an option in the Behavior Shield that effectively stops the script shield from working (mentioned by Tetsuo in Reply #17 of that topic. See my post in that topic, http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=96535.msg771226#msg771226.

So have you disabled/unchecked the "Monitor the system for unauthorized modifications" in the Behavior Shield settings ?

hmm anyone mind checking if script shield is scanning scripts when google chrome v18.0.1025.142 is running.

if someone posts a positive, i shall do a clean install of Avast to see if it solves my problem  :)

No, I have the Behavior Shield at its default settings so the option you mentioned isn't disabled.

Looks like you and Bob (in the other topic) have the same issue as he too has that option enabled but no script shield activity.
