Glad you have your problem solved. I also wonder about essexboy was suggesting about the tray icon being simply hidden.
I just wanted to make it clear that when I mentioned the task manager and Avast service, I was NOT talking about the program “AvastUI.exe” listed under the “Processes” tab of Windows Task Manager. Instead, I was talking about the “Services” tab (hence the wording I used, “Avast service”), where you should have “Avast! Antivirus” listed right after booting.
