I’ve been using Avast home edition for just a week or so. Starting yesterday, Avast refuses to scan any folders or files I select via Windows Explorer (right-click). Whenever I attempt to, up comes this error:
Program cannot create "Object" in "Storage"
Can’t find any reference to this error, in Avast’s help section, or by searching this forum. Please help! I had to reinstall one of your competitors, in order to restore file and folder scanning.
Most likely ODBC driver problem.
Please see http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=2;action=display;threadid=3342;start=msg24155#msg24155 for a detailed discussion.

Thank you, now that was a more courteous reply, than the other.
FYI, the URL you referred me to, was mostly about how Norton’s utilities creates this conflict. I don’t have ANY of that product installed, and never had. The answer was simply changing that line in Avast!4.ini
from
Database=ODBC
to
Database=XML
I didn’t even have to reboot. And that’s all she wrote.
