crash reports

Since a couple of days, about ten times a day, a pop-up screen appears with the header ‘crash report’. I have send this way about 50 crash reports but the pop-up keeps coming back. Someone an idea of what is going on here?

Oh yeah, forgottten: the pop-up comes from support@avast.

Could you post a screenshot?
BTW what OS are you using?

This is one of the crash-reports:

"avast! has generated unhandled exception (crash report follows).

And this is what appears in the pop-up window:

“Internal error has occurred in Avast! program. It is probably caused by a program bug or invalid entry data”.

“send error report”.

Pity, Im’ a first hour fan of Avast.

Start the Mail Protection Wizard from the avast group in Start menu, and complete it again. This time, make sure to not check the ‘Automatically Protect All Accounts That I Create In The Future’ box.

Hello,

Your suggestion did the trick!!! No more pop-ups, problem solved. Thank you so much!
