I’m having a similar startup problem as well. The avast! tray icon shows a red sign over it. If I double-click on it, i get an error message (see attached image):
“avast!: The AAVM subsystem detected a RPC error.”
“The operation could not be completed.”
I had first tried with the Spanish version, now with the English version. I get the same error message with both of them.
The log viewer shows the following entries in the “Error” category:
12.10.2003 20:16:27 NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM 540 AAVM - initialization error: AavmStart: avworkInitialize failed, 0000A413.
12.10.2003 21:36:26 NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM 544 AAVM - initialization error: AavmStart: avworkInitialize failed, 0000A413.
I’m using the latest version (downloaded today), and even registered as home user, and entered the registration code.
I’m running an Windows 2000 Professional (Spanish) on an Athlon with 128 MB of RAM.
Startup and manual scanning both seem to work fine; it’s the resident shield that doesn’t start.
Need more info?
