We will need more information to be able to help you:
- Which OS are you using? Is it up to date?
- What avast! version and VPS file (virus database) number?
- What was the filename and path where the virus was found?
- Which actions have you taken to try solving the problem?
- Do you use a firewall? Which one?
- Do you have any other antivirus installed in your system?
- Any other security programs that could interfere?
Is there a Red circle and bar over the avast icon ?
If so check these:

AAVM subsytem detected and RPC error. http://www.avast.com/eng/faq-other-questions.html#idt_1539
Are you getting any errors, if so what are they ?
Have (or did) you have another AV installed in this system, if so what was it and how did you get rid of it ?
u can start the provider by opening the on-access scanner and click the button “start” at each provider…if ure not able as u state,open the “add/remove program” and click to unistall avast…when the installation wizard opens,select the option “change” and be sure to install all the providers and if that doesn’t fiz it either,do a “repair”(its an option from the avast installation wizard)…i think that pne of these will solve ur solution otherwise hang on and an evangelist will reply ur topic soon welcome to the forums
