Avast! Scary Guy talking to me :(

Hi, you know when that the virus database gets updated or when a virus is found, you get this scary guy talking to you?

It made me jump from my chair the first day I got avast :frowning:

I remember reading somewhere that you can change it but I forgot where…I tried finding the settings myself but I just can’t find them. Maybe I’m not looking hard enough.

Is it also possible to create custom sounds for avast? Like instead of saying “Virus database has been updated” it would say “I like pie” or something.

Not sure if this would be the correct forum to ask in but please excuse me if I’m in the wrong place. Thanks.

It depends. :wink:

Then thats mean its okay if we modify the sound with our own creation for personal use? ??? (I don’t think ever read it on the EULA)

You can’t modify the sound of the original avast .wav file as a) the self-defence module would block and b) avast may well replace it on its integrity checks. You simply have a different audio file you point the avast Sounds at.

my husband and I both like any of the voice he likes me to change them some times and he knows avast is always looking out for our computer.

Oh sorry, I mean to make a own modified voice (kind like our own voice), and point avast sound to that file.
