i need some help for avast 7

[Vegeta100]

i have avast 7 paid and my pc win 7 32-bit. first with avast 6 every time it update i voice said avast is updated or sometime but with 7 it doesnt do that anymore or scan also. last time it found a virus it was 3/18/2012 since then it has not found anything more and i am happy but sometime i think maybe avast maybe not working right? what other program can i get to combo with avast 7 that wont effect avast?? i am asking b/c i am not a computer expert and you guys know more than me. there alot new things avast 7 has so i dont know dont touch it b/c i am afraid i will mess avast up.

I suggest running a repair of avast via programs and features first to see if that cures your updating issue, as for a good program to run alongside of avast then that would be Malwarebytes - you can either run the free version or the paid for realtime protection and auto updates ( lifetime license about $25-$30 )

i did the repair and thanks for telling me about Malwarebytes

As far as i know AOL is just a search engine ( not a browser ) so yes avast will work.

Thanks for useful information about combination with Malwarebytes! I was wondering that.

ok does any 1 have ccleaner because mine in applications under utilities it says avast 6 but i have 7 and also says avg anti virus 2012 wtf??

[DavidR]

Well ccleaner doesn't have any routines for avast7 and it is in the same location as avast6 would be so to all intents and purposes ccleaner couldn't tell. What I will say is don't allow ccleaner to clean any avast locations (logs or temp).

Where is it saying you have avg 2012 ?
Have you ever had and or how did you get rid of avg 2012 ?

The ccleaner in the Applications tab lists many programs that you may or many not have installed.

Uninstall can on occasion leave remnants:
See http://singularlabs.com/uninstallers/security-software/, this has a collection of manufactures removal tools, so that should remove any remnants, registry, etc.

I don't know why your system doesn't have the voice, it should be the same, it is on mine. Or are you saying you have a different voice or no voice at all ?

[Vegeta100]

no voice at all

[DavidR]

Check your sound setup as some sound drivers (Realtek) have separate sound equalisers/settings and the one for avast may be muted.

There are a few topics on avast sounds not working, you could try the forum search and see if they also give any information.

no voice at all

[Vegeta100]
