Is anyone there who can help me understand why my Avast icon disappeared from my tray? I checked my WinXP msconfig, startup and don’t see it there either. When I start up the Program List is appears there but only the config part… I am worried about whether I have protection. Should I uninstall and re-stall?
What shows in Task Manager (Crtl + Alt + Del ), there should be 4 processes, 3 start with ash… and one asw… if there aren’t 4.
I would suggest that you try a repair of 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.
If that doesn’t work uninstall, boot, install, boot.
