Hey! I just fixed this issue on my Windows 7 X64 machine. I went to the computer control panel, uninstall programs, avast. I clicked on it and then selected the “repair” option. It did it’s thing and rebooted. Now, the WebRep add-on works just fine. I mean I can install it and uninstall it at will from within the program GUI. Hope this helps!

thesilentman, for reference, please also send me the export from the reg key mentioned above…

Generally speaking, can everyone who’s having the problem please confirm that he’s using 64-bit version of Windows?

Thanks
Vlk

I’m having the same problem and I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

It may help to know that Avast is working on a repair of the WebRep http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=72297.0.

In that thread VLK is talking about backend webrep server problem. We’re talking about a different issue related to local WebRep installation on 64 bit system under Firefox. This problem has nothing to do with the backend infrastructure issue; btw this problem confirm that WebRep has a great success and all of us with this issue really want to use on our 64 bit systems with Firefox.

By the way, we have found the problem and it will be fixed in the next program update, possibly by the end of next week.

Thanks

Report: On Vista x64 Latest SP, FF3.6.15, IE 8.0.6001.19019

I did an update from 6.0.1000 to 6.0.1021.
It showed the plugins in IE and FF but they were not showing results on known sites and I was not able to vote (IE Vote-popup would close, but my vote was not “remembered”), (FF vote-popup would not close.)
I uninstalled the plugins from within avast restarted both browsers, then installed both plugins from within avast and restarted both browsers.
Now everything is fine.

Best regards,
Frank
