After updating the avast program to v5.1.889 I’ve started to getting problems with my graphic card driver. its always complaining when I restart the computer.
I use Win7 x64, Avast Antivirus 5.1.889, release date 16.1.2011.
Anyone know why?
Secondly, I dislike the AVAST firewall alot… Is there a way to turn it of without getting “warning” on top of the Avast icon in the lower right?
You don’t say what avast version you are using, AIS is the only one with a firewall, if that is correct rather than stop it you can actually uninstall it (see below). This prevents having to kill the message avastUI, Settings, Status Bar, uncheck the firewall monitoring option.
From windows Add Remove Programs, Avast, Change Remove, select Change, from the new window uncheck the firewall module and OK your way out, reboot and the firewall should be gone.
You don’t say what the graphics driver is ?
Check the C:\ProgramData\Alwil Software\Avast5\report\BehaviorShield.txt using notepad and see if there are any references to that graphics driver. Copy and paste any path for the driver and add it to the Behaviour Shield, Expert Settings, Trusted processes.
I smell a reinstallation… Not that its not supposed to be reinstalled, just hoped it would have waited some more. Since my new drive aren’t to arrive in a week.
