I also have a similar problem with Photoshop and avast, but Avast did not put Photoshop in virus chest, but perhaps deleted the executable file. Chest remains empty.

Did you change settings in File System Shields > Accions. Avast! is set up to move detected files to Virus chest automatically. Mine is set to " Ask ". I know what I am doing though. See image

If Avast! deleted Photoshop.exe, you need to install the program again, but it is better if you exclude the program in Avast! before you reinstall photoshop.

I would exclude it in FSS with this path C:\Program Files\Photoshop** since I do not know the real path and name of the program. Then I would send the offending file, photoshop.exe, to Avast! labs as F/P.

Karen is asking if it is OK to follow my procedures:
