system

The actual balloon message is " Your computer might be at risk, Your firewall is not switched on, Click this balloon to fix this problem"
message appears 90 secs after avast A icon appeats and lasts approx 1 sec.
XP firewall is switched on, I have even turned it off and turned it back on, still with the same message.
The reason I believe that it is being generated or caused by Avast is the Avast FAQ’s, Quest “what should I know about using avast 4 together with a firewall” where it states “you will be receiving warnings by your firewall, because avast tries to connect to our servers”
That is why I believed that my machine was correct and my daughters machine was in error
I am going to delete avast from my machine and reinstall it to see if the problem goes away, however, any further info would be appreciated as I can’t see how 2 computers set up the same could cause this problem
