Avast Services Stopping automatically

Hi… I have a really weird problem with a fresh intallation of Avast Home.

After a while (less than an hour from boot), the avast icon disappears from the system tray, and the avast services are stopped. I’ve checked the System Event Viewer, and I see the services shutting down cleanly… just like if I had stopped them manually, i.e.:

Se ha enviado satisfactoriamente un control detener al servicio avast! Web Scanner. (Event Id 7035)
El servicio avast! Web Scanner entró en estado detenido. (Event Id 7036)

What can be causing this?

Thanks

:slight_smile: Hi :

 There is a new "Malware" that is causing problems for antiVIRUS programs;
 you MAY have been "infected" by it . Other than Avast, what other
 security program(s) do you have on your computer ? IF you have no
 antiSPYWARE/antiTROJAN program(s), I recommend you use the FREE
 version of "SUPERAntiSpyware" from www.superantispyware.com ASAP .
