the problem I met with the version 4.7.1074 was the same described by Bumm. The installation of beta version solved this problem
Can I add to this post that the 4.7.1074 issues don’t just affect Vista, they also affect XP x64
Thanks,
Paul A
But the 1083 beta build solves them, right?
Cheers

I’m running Home 4.7.1074 under XP-SP2. When the Web shield is activated, I lose my connection with the Web. If I close it down everything works fine. This is not the case with 4.7.1043 which I am running on another pc.
I’ll try 1085 ay suggested.
1085 appears to have solved things.
Yeah, no troubles with it in Vista.
not running Vista bit I have a windows 64-bit system and running XP pro 64-bit and having major virtual memory issues ever since i installed avast pro 4.7.1074 and all my apps are taking longer to load and run and I have major system lag issues when I play my game Anarchy Online unless I reboot before I log in to play. This was never an issue until I went from the free trial to Avast pro addition. Maybe need help witht he settings or?
only errors i get are related to quickbooks or windows office with this software.
The trial version is identical of the Pro version. If you buy the Pro version and add the key, nothing should change. Otherwise, if you come from free to Pro version, the Script Blocker provider will be added. Is there any error displayed in the screen? What is lag issue for you: delays, when they occur?, if you disable avast do they disappear?, which other security programs are you using?
microsoft has their own security porgrams that run at the same time and we have not recieved any error messages. We are running XP Pro for 64-bit on a 64-bit system-AMD dual and we have 435G remaining on HD and 2G RAM. We went from free software and bought the pro for 2 yrs., so the script blocker was added in. I get a system message that our virtual memory is low, not like an error message, just a warning to close some aps which was never an issue until we bought Avast pro. Seems to me there is a huge memory leak? The lag issues occur if our system is not rebooted every day and still I am seeing some in my game that i didn’t have before. Yes, lag issues go away after I disable avast pro.
Snowie, I’m not sure I’m following you. Have you tried installing the latest beta (as suggested in the first post of this thread)? If so, did it make any difference?
I’ve got a biiig problem!
I got a new Computer with Vista. At Home I’ve got XP on my computer and Avast runs perfect… now my problem is… I installed avast! 4 Home - GERMAN on my new Computer (with Vista) and hardly Avast is installed my Internet Explorer and my windows mail doesn’t run…
First when I abort some providers (web-security, outlook/exchange and internet mail) my internet Explorer and my windows mail does run again!
So I don’t know what I should/could do!!? ???

Have you allowed Avast through your firewall ? What firewall are you using
the windows firewall…
edit:
and I saw I’ve got also the mcaffee firewall on, but I want to uninstall Mcaffee, when avast is running!
Check this page out for the uninstall tool http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=107083&lc=4105&partner then reboot and let us know how it goes
okay! I try! thx
Edit: Now… it runs…
hmm… why didn’t I do this before… g

I have 2 vista Ultimate 32bit PCs, on one 4.7.1074 works fine, on the 2nd PC Security Center does not recogize Avast or Defender. The 4.7.1096 does not correct this issue, any help appreciated.

THANK YOU! I installed 4.7.1074 yesterday (I don’t know why I didn’t pick it up sooner) and immediately noticed that it took a long time for my apps to launch. I’m now on 4.7.1096 and things are back to normal.
I’m glad you’ve got that topic posted at the top of the forum. I agree with someone who posted earlier who said it ought to be in big bold red letters flashing.
I hope one of these beta versions is pushed out to users soon. Probably many Vista users are experiencing this and don’t know the cause.
Thanks again!
