Shields
« on: April 24, 2012, 02:10:23 PM »
If it's not one thing it's another with V7.0.1426
First Script shield doesn't work then it does.
But now Mail Shield has stopped working.
It's about time Avast got their act together.
What's the point of have shields if they only work intermittently.
I have also just noticed Web shield is no working

First, be sure you get rid of all remnants of your prior installed AVs.
-> https://support.avast.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=574

Then:
1. Download avast! Free Antivirus: http://files.avast.com/iavs5x/avast_free_antivirus_setup.exe
2. Follow instructions: http://www.avast.com/uninstall-utility (Uninstall all prior installed versions..!)
3. Reinstall avast! with the downloaded installer from point 1.
4. Reboot.

Do you actually know what the problem was?
Or was it corrupted in some way?

Hard to say, but as it's working now there's no need to dig deeper... ;)
