I wanna ask one thing when this bug will go (see screenshot)?? It has been reported I think 100 times…

May I ask how much longer for the final release might come out, and could the Avast staff give us a time frame please just asking because I hate to keep on biting my finger nails.

Use gloves.

There’s also a liquid you can put on the nails that makes them taste very nasty and bitter. Parents use it for their children. Don’t know the name, you can surely google for it… ;D

Yet another bug… When i run quick scan or full scan or any scan from GUI and close the UI of avast then a notification comes near system tray displaying the scan progress…
So after scan being completed i close that notification but when I right click on avast sys tray icon and then click on show last popup message it shows screenshot 1st and when I click resume or any button then it shows screenshot 2nd.

Any valuable comments please…

Regards
Ash

Is it the same behaviour when you wait for the pop-up closing automatically, without clicking the x?

AshishSingh · 2011-04-05T10:05:15.000Z

So sad to say yes…

safezone doesn’t work anymore…I mean I can open it, but the browser wouldn’t launch, not even by clicking on the shortcut there.

Hi Logos I just tried that and experienced the same problem - I opened the GUI and reset safe zone, then re-entered and it worked ???

Rednose · 2011-04-05T21:20:03.000Z

Sounds like this problem ???

thanks, the problem is that I didn’t install SafeZone during the initial setup, I added it later, and now I realize that I don’t have any SafeZone tab in Avast UI ??? … so I can’t reset it.

system · 2011-04-05T22:06:31.000Z

okay I could solve it. No idea how that happened, as said I could launch the SZ from the gadget button but no browser launching and the browser shortcut there lost its icon + no SZ tab in Avast UI.

So I checked the change menu from the uninstall entry and SafeZone appeared there as not installed ??? I checked the SZ entry, rebooted and now it works again as expected.

edit: the browser starts now automatically when launching the SZ, but minimized, no big deal.

I think “bitter apple” is one of them.

I wonder if Vlk has any.;D

Bitter almond oil
This has the cyanide removed :o

No problems here updating from 1000. Although I noticed that Avast still won’t sandbox a second instance of Firefox (v4) if the first instance isn’t already sandboxed.

Avast is now detecting it’s definition files as locked and cannot be scanned. I know there’s no need to scan them, but this is new. Maybe a new definition will change that. Whatever it is it’s not happened before and I’ve changed nothing.
