The optin should work just the same in avast6, which was one reason why I asked if it had been working before as that would imply the use of the optin.
The file that needs to be modified (using notepad) in XP C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AVAST Software\Avast\WebShield.ini in Vista, win7 C:\ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\WebShield.ini and add the new line OptinProcess=k-meleon.exe after the [WebScanner] section heading
[WebScanner]
OptinProcess=k-meleon.exe
When saving the avast self-defence will ask it you want to save the changes, etc. answer yes.
