Okay so I uninstalled zonealarm, rebooted, got nothing.
Removed spybot s&d also, rebooted, got nothing.
Uninstalled Avast, used avast cleaner and avast cleaner.
Re-installed Avast from online installer.
Rebooted…
And still no icon in systray. Context menu scan also still not working, in fact it gives me an error “AvastUI is currently not running. Please run the application before starting a scan”.
Incidentally, this is the closest to other report of similar problem: http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/topic/135574-malewarebytes-avg-wont-start-this-program-is-blocked-by-group-policy/?p=786870
