avast active

I am running Avast Premium in Windows 7. I have an alert in my system tray with a red x. When I select this it tells me I have 1 important message and the message is “turn on avast antivirus (important)”. When I open Avast the status reflected is “everything is good”.

Is there any cause for concern?

Restart your machine , if the warning is still present, then carry out a repair of avast.
