Did that. The odd thing is is that even though it says the shields are not running, it says everything is protected. Also, the orange globe thing spins once in a while.

A screenshot might help. :)

Well, this will work as well. ;D
According to your screenshot avast! doesn't do/scan anything.

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

I've already done that, but I'm giving it another shot. Here's a shot of the globe spinning though.
