avast! Tweaker

system · 2006-09-17T15:09:21.000Z

Nice work Tech

It will be an application to modify and enhance avast! antivirus. It's being developed mostly for XP (some functions will work on Vista or Windows 98).

Does this mean that it would not work for Windows2000

Sent you an IM with my gmail address OK? Please send me the file there buddy …

Done 8)

Are you planning to make some sort of tutorial?

Well… it should be an auto-help application, specially for avast! evangelists…
At the moment, I need to finish it… there are a lot of work to do… help file and tutorial will be in a very future…

No… it should work. Just I can’t test as I don’t have Windows 2k.
Please, take care in the future because this ‘toy’ could change a lot of avast settings and you need to know what you’re doing

Tech i found a bug… I’ll post some screenshots in a couple minutes.

EDIT: After i did a scan of my c: partition the little white box for selecting folders won’t go away. Look below:

I’ll try it again at my next restart. I currently have Tiger Woods 06 opened in the back maybe that can be connected somehow? Anyway i’ll have to try it again when i restart to see if it’s still the same. Will report back…

Thanks for reporting.
The left overs are my headache in the moment… Better than ‘beta’ this version should be called ‘alpha’…
I’ll see what can I do.

Sorry, right now, only for avast! Evangelists 8)

Oh, it’s sad that I can’t test your app, but rules are rules

system · 2006-09-17T22:39:42.000Z

But what about SNOWITE ??
And why onyl Evangelist ??
Even non evangelist can be experienced sometimes even more then evangelist themselves.

You’re right… But Evangelists prove - at least for a while - their fidelity to avast, their capacity to help…
You’ll get it soon. Keep your good work
Oh, better, if you don’t get fanatic to avast! as we are ;D ;D

Hello my Brazilian friend!
Here is another thing i noticed:

Mikey… due to new avast 5 Antikill feature, I’ll have to re-write all the ‘apply’ settings. Besides this, I’m trying to prepair a ‘default’ buttom to bring back the settings.
All these take a long time. Sorry, remember, just a very new beta (I should called it alpha…) :

system · 2006-09-18T11:24:55.000Z

OK Tech i understand!

Just trying to help out
If you need anything you know how to contact me buddy.

Edit: 

I had to download 7zip but that was no problem. Unzipped the tweaker without a problem. But, when I try to install, I get the below error at about 50% of installation. Got an idea what is wrong?

system · 2006-09-18T21:44:27.000Z

Yes i believe the error message will be pretty helpful to Tech.
@Tech: Declare your variables my friend haha ;D
