I would just like to know if anything like that is possible? I am getting really pissed off by Avast showing me every day that I have 40gb of system junk, totally broken registry and I don’t know what else just to make me buy premium. I really like how the free antivirus works, but I will switch back to avira if this is not possible. Thank you very much for your help!
Both of Avasts major free competitors, don’t show you ads, or at least allow you to disable ads.
I’ve been using Avast for years, but I actually took a 2 year break because Avast kept showing annoying ads. I really wish they would allow you to disable it, it doesn’t encourage people to buy your product, it encourages them to switch vendors. :-\
I rarely see anything like this and I use Avast Free, I have a custom installation with the basic Shield components. Plus the WiFi Inspector, Software Updater and Do Not Disturb Mode.
Outside of the forums (ref questions) I don’t run the Smart Scan where much of this comes from trying to push other Avast paid products. In fact I rarely if ever run on-demand scans of any kind, greatly depreciated in a resident on-access antivirus.
Spend a little time setting up avast and remove components you don’t need or want and it will cut down some of the noise and make it lighter.
